Abstract: High health care prices cause significant harm to individuals, businesses, communities, and society at large. These harms include reduced access to care, rising medical debt, lower wages, more inequity, and a growing burden on businesses and governments. Despite widespread recognition of the issue, there has been insufficient action to address it effectively. Catalyst for Payment Reform and the Employers' Forum of Indiana's new campaign, Price Crisis, will mobilize individuals, employers, and policy makers with evidence, guidance, and resources to take meaningful actions through marketplace initiatives, policy advocacy, and antitrust enforcement. The following article is written from the perspective of Catalyst for Payment Reform.
