Requires health companies to share patient data and make prices more transparent and affordable.
The problem
Patients struggle to access their own health records, compare prices between providers, and understand healthcare costs. Health companies control data without clear rules.
The proposal
The bill requires health companies to give patients access to their data, display prices clearly, and make healthcare more affordable through transparency and data sharing rules.
The impact
Patients gain easier access to medical records and pricing information. Health companies and insurers must follow new data-sharing and transparency rules. Healthcare costs and quality may improve.
People can finally access and move their health information between doctors and providers. This helps patients get better care and make smarter health choices. It puts power back in patients' hands.
Patients can see healthcare prices upfront before getting care. This lets people compare costs between hospitals and doctors. Lower prices may result from fair competition.
When doctors can easily share patient data, care improves and mistakes decrease. Patients avoid duplicate tests and treatments. Everyone saves time and money.
The bill protects patient privacy while expanding data access rights. Patients gain legal tools to control their own information. Clear rules prevent misuse of health data.
Hospitals and insurance companies must spend money on new systems to share data and show prices. Smaller providers may struggle more than large ones. These costs might get passed to patients.
Sharing more patient data increases chances of hacking and data breaches. Criminals could target health information. Strong protections must be built in, which is expensive.
Healthcare prices are confusing because insurance, location, and treatments vary widely. Showing prices alone may confuse patients rather than help them. Comparing prices fairly is technically difficult.
Some companies profit from controlling patient data and keeping prices hidden. These rules threaten their business models. Companies may resist or lobby against implementation.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC
No donor data found for current cycle
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
