Minnesota residents have a new tool to help them comparison shop for health care services. Last week, the state of Minnesota launched the Cost Report tool on the Minnesota HealthScores website.  This new tool allows residents to compare prices for health care services and shows the lowest provider cost for a procedure, the highest provider cost, and the average cost per medical group for 103 common medical procedures from 110 providers across the state. This project was a collaborative effort with state health providers collecting the data from health insurance companies.
