Occurrences

The legislation strengthens federal transparency requirements by requiring hospitals and insurers to disclose actual prices in clear, dollar-based terms. It also establishes enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance, giving patients the ability to compare costs before receiving care.

Burlison's plan would mandate real price transparency in healthcare and add enforcement to ensure compliance.

Evidence

Burlison said he introduced the Great American Healthcare Plan and that it 'strengthens federal transparency requirements by requiring hospitals and insurers to disclose actual prices in clear, dollar-based terms' and 'establishes enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance.'

Direct recent attempt in the current term to advance the price-disclosure and enforcement pledge through introduced legislation.

The introduced bill states it is 'to amend the Public Health Service Act to provide for hospital and insurer price transparency' and requires hospitals to publish charges in plain language and insurers to disclose in-network and out-of-network rate information.

Official bill text shows the concrete policy design that matches the promise, but the bill was only introduced and referred to committee.

Congress.gov lists the latest action as referral to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce and the bill status as Introduced, with no later action shown in the record excerpt.

The related transparency bill did not advance beyond introduction and committee referral, which undercuts any claim of completed delivery.

never same_term A for effort

Burlison made a concrete federal legislative attempt that closely matches the promise: he introduced legislation requiring hospitals and insurers to disclose actual prices in clear dollar terms and adding enforcement mechanisms. However, the cited bill was only introduced and referred to committee, with no evidence it passed or that the promised disclosure-and-enforcement regime was implemented. Because the promised outcome has not been delivered, but the candidate made a serious legislative effort during the same federal term, this is best scored as not delivered with an effort badge.
