The race is on for the best free cost comparison website. There are quite a few challenges for these sites:
- How does the site generate a source of revenue to keep it operating?
- How will it compare services that are along the same grain of detail?
- How will it simplify procedural terms so that they are understandable and not "medical speak"?
There are quite a few challenges to get a fully functional site operating that's of value to the consumer. However, if such a site exists, will people use it? Will it present a value to the consumer who may only care about out-of-pocket costs. Perhaps, quality and cost share estimates can be luring enough for consumers to start major adoption.
Here are a few players in the game:
