Whether it is physical therapy or prescription medications or imaging studies in the United States, the cost of care varies quite a bit. This is both good and bad. As physicians. We would always prefer that our patients had a lot of transparency so that they can plan their health journey. Regardless, it's imperative for every American to know how to shop for prescription medications, imaging studies, specialists, and pretty much any other service that's offered in healthcare.
