TITLE 40 — Public health and safety
RS 40:1300.111 — Findings
PART L. LOUISIANA HEALTH CARE CONSUMERS' RIGHT TO KNOW
§1300.111. Findings
The legislature finds that as a result of rising health care costs, the shortage of health professionals and health care services in many areas of the state, and the concerns expressed by consumers, health care providers, third-party payers, and others involved with making informed decisions regarding health care services, treatment, and coverage, there is a need to have access to provider specific health care cost, quality, and outcome data on health care facilities, health care providers, and health plans as well as continued access to global patterns and trends in the availability, use, and charges for health care services and the associated health circumstances.
