Peter Hayes, President and CEO at Healthcare Purchaser Alliance of Maine, is on a mission to help consumers find safe, quality, and affordable care. 

Here, Stephanie and Apurv talk about their interview with Peter. Peter shared amazing details about how much the very same procedure or medication may cost from one provider to another. 

Peter also says that cost and quality don’t go hand in hand. Through his work at the Healthcare Purchaser Alliance, he and his team are working to put the consumer in the driver’s seat by vastly improving price and quality transparency.

One easy tip to ensure you’re getting the proper care that’s both high quality and cost effective? Peter says to “shop around” by seeking a second opinion.
