Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.
- "Consumer empowerment can be an effective strategy for healthcare cost containment, but health plans and employers must teach consumers how to avoid unnecessary care, question costs, or shop around for the best treatment available at a reasonable price. This will empower them to demand the care and services they need.”
