DFW pilot forming
CashCare is building the DFW cash-price finder for healthcare services.
HealthIT.com is becoming a public-safe way for uninsured, underinsured, and cash-pay patients to find healthcare services with visible self-pay terms. Listings show cash price shape, included fees, order requirements, source, and freshness before a patient ever enters clinical, insurance, booking, or payment information.
Purpose
Cash-pay access starts with finding a usable option.
CashCare starts with healthcare services people need to locate without clinical triage: known visits, procedures, imaging studies, common labs, therapy visits, dental and vision services, pharmacy items, supplies, and medical products. The product avoids quality ranking, medical necessity, insurance eligibility, referral steering, and lowest-price guarantees. Its job is to make cash options findable with visible price scope and auditable source context.
Cash-pay primary care, urgent visits, specialty consults, and second-opinion services.

See policyOperating model
Four surfaces make the marketplace honest before it scales.
Verification workflow
Public source, provider attestation, and reverification status stay visible instead of being hidden behind a generic badge.
Patient search flow
Users filter by service, city or ZIP, price, order requirement, and verification level without submitting identity.
Provider listing intake
Providers can submit cash-price scope, included fees, source URL, and attestation details for review.
Admin operations
Internal review queues separate draft observations from active public listings and keep an audit trail.
Sample listing format
Every visible row should answer the practical price question.
These are demo rows used to prove the interface and contract. Real production inventory remains gated on verified DFW seed data.

For providers
List cash prices without handing CashCare clinical intake.
The provider motion is deliberately narrow: confirm public identity, service scope, cash price, included and excluded fees, referral/order requirement, source, and contact path. CashCare does not collect patient charts or payment data in this phase.
- Provider signup applications are reviewed for business identity and publication fit.
- Source, price freshness, included fees, and order requirement are reviewed.
- Approved providers receive the $149 launch sign-on invoice before publication.
