HOSPITALS – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding maternity price transparency and disclosure.

Summary

The bill adds a new section to Idaho law that obligates any licensed hospital offering labor and delivery services to provide a consumer‑friendly online price estimator showing a complete quote for a maternity episode of care. Hospitals must create separate, single‑click pages for vaginal and cesarean births that list an all‑inclusive price or itemized standard services, common additional charges, and a disclaimer that the estimate applies only to uncomplicated deliveries. It also bars contracts that prevent hospitals from offering or disclosing a discounted cash price for these services.
