Community Memorial Hospital , a UnityPoint hospital in Sumner; Loring Hospital in Sac City; and Southeast Iowa Regional Medical Center in West Burlington, owned by Great River Health, were among more than 500 hospitals across the country the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services warned their price disclosure practices were insufficient. “Patients should not have to guess what a hospital visit is going to cost,” said Adam Buckalew, spokesperson for the group, Hospital Watch . “If hospitals are serious about affordability, they should start by following the basic transparency rules already on the books.
