CashCare Exchange HealthIT.com / DFW pilot

DFW pilot now forming

Find verified cash prices for imaging and labs.

CashCare Exchange is a price-forward comparison layer for known shoppable care. The first surface focuses on DFW imaging and common lab services, with clear price freshness, included fees, referral requirements, and booking paths.

Initial version: This is a static information surface for the CashCare Exchange pilot at HealthIT.com. No booking, payment, symptom intake, diagnosis matching, insurance eligibility, or medical advice is offered here. Future listings will use non-PHI directory and price-transparency data only.

Pilot wedge

Start where price comparison is natural.

The first CashCare exchange surface will prioritize services patients already know they need, where price variation is meaningful and the listing can stay outside clinical intake.

Imaging

MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray, screening mammogram, cardiac calcium score

Labs

CBC, CMP, lipid panel, A1c, thyroid testing, PSA and common cash-pay panels

Geography

Dallas-Fort Worth first, then Texas expansion after verification workflow holds

What CashCare verifies

Price is not useful unless scope is clear.

Field Why it matters Public status
Cash price or range Users need comparable price shape, not vague discount language. Verified or public-file-only
Included and excluded fees Facility, professional, contrast, draw, and interpretation fees can change the real cost. Shown plainly
Referral/order requirement Many services still require an order even when paid directly. Required / not required / unclear
Price freshness Stale prices create user harm and provider friction. Date-stamped

For providers

Verified listings without another full marketplace integration.

The v0.1 provider workflow is intentionally narrow: confirm public identity, location, cash price, included fees, referral/order requirement, and booking or quote path. CashCare does not collect patient charts or clinical free text in this phase.

  1. Public prefill from provider websites, price files, NPPES, and Texas license verification where applicable.
  2. Provider confirmation of service scope, price freshness, and booking path.
  3. Public listing with verification quality and a clear correction path.

Built for patients and providers

CashCare exists to make known shoppable care easier to compare, not to replace clinical judgment.

The exchange will publish only non-PHI directory and service data in v0.1. Live booking and payment will wait until the payment model, legal posture, and provider verification workflow are ready.
