Imagine you want to use grocery receipts to figure out the best place to shop. Instead of products and prices, the receipts list ingredients without info on what item they belong to

Employers, especially self-insured employers, can be one of the best allies in the quest for higher value and more affordable health care. They pay directly for the costs of health care and want to keep their employees happy and healthy. @KaiserFamFound @hvpaa
