Patient Rights Advocate, Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting healthcare price transparency to empower patients, consumers, employers, and other stakeholders. The private company is based in Newton, MA. The organization provides free online tools, such as state-specific hospital price finder platforms and a nationwide hospital drug price finder, which display negotiated rates, cash prices, and procedure-specific cost information sourced from CMS-mandated data. These tools help users compare hospital prices, identify overcharges, and make informed healthcare decisions to avoid surprise billing and reduce medical costs. The organization focuses on driving systemic change toward fair, upfront medical pricing by educating the public, debunking myths about healthcare pricing, and advocating for policies that enhance transparency and competition. It offers resources on how to shop for healthcare, fight medical bill overcharges, and navigate billing disputes, encouraging patients to verify charges, negotiate costs, and engage with providers and insurers. Patient Rights Advocate also conducts research, publishes reports on hospital pricing compliance, supports legal actions against inflated drug costs, and participates in public policy advocacy to foster a competitive healthcare market that improves quality and affordability. The company was founded in 2017 by Cynthia A. Fisher.
