Fair Pricing Act 101 Community Webinar
The Fair Pricing Act (S705/A2140) is proposed state legislation designed to bring transparency and equity to hospital pricing.
Its core mission:
-
Standardize the cost of routine medical procedures.
-
Require hospitals to publicly justify any additional charges.
Why does this matter? Disparate and predatory pricing is a significant barrier to necessary, affordable care, directly leading to delayed diagnoses and poorer long-term health outcomes in our communities. For many—especially groups like AAPI New Yorkers—cost is the main hurdle to seeking routine preventative care. No family should have to choose between medical bills and basic needs like rent or groceries.
Join us to discuss how the Fair Pricing Act is a crucial step toward building an equitable and affordable healthcare landscape for all.
