Economist Vivian Ho has been researching the US health care system for four decades. These days she focuses on what she describes as the biggest burden on the average American: runaway hospital prices and rising health insurance premiums. (You know, Arm and a Leg stuff.) 

And she’s developed a strategy for addressing high insurance premiums – one based on a real-life success story.

So when she asked us to help her gather data for a new study, we were intrigued.

We break down Vivian’s theory of change, and how sharing your medical bills with her team could help build a data arsenal for the fight ahead.
