Cynthia Fisher, Founder and Chairman, started PatientRightsAdvocate.org a few years ago to represent the consumers of healthcare – patients, American workers, businesses and taxpayers – in the fight for price transparency across the healthcare system. The ability to see prices will enable a competitive marketplace in healthcare, greatly reducing the cost of care and coverage for patients, employers and our government.
