Kaiser Health News: Few Places Have More Medical Debt Than Dallas-Fort Worth, but Hospitals There Are Thriving

HCCI's Healthy Marketplace Index was cited in a KHN article on medical debt in Dallas-Fort Worth. 

From the article: "Dallas-Fort Worth has the highest medical prices in Texas, according to the Health Care Cost Institute, a nonprofit that tracks costs nationwide. And in a state where most markets have relatively low medical prices, in-patient care at Dallas-Fort Worth hospitals was 13% more expensive than the national median in 2020."
