One reason health care is so $$$ is that the cost is hidden in a black box. The #LowerHealthCareCosts Act of 2019 will make it easier to track bills and require hospitals to send all bills within 30 business days, to prevent unexpected bills from arriving many months after care. https://t.co/60oizdp2Vd — PolitiTweet.org
