Turquoise Health operates a digital platform that helps patients and healthcare providers compare healthcare costs transparently. Users can input their insurance details to see out-of-pocket expenses for various services, such as metabolic panels and ultrasounds, making it easier to make informed healthcare decisions. The platform collaborates with healthcare centers and insurance providers across multiple locations, including Wichita and New York, to gather and display publicly available pricing information required by law. This focus on price transparency sets Turquoise Health apart from competitors, as it simplifies the often confusing healthcare pricing landscape. The company's goal is to empower patients by providing them with the necessary tools to understand and manage their healthcare costs effectively.
