What this bill does
H.R. 9390, the "Prices on the Wall Act of 2026," would amend the Public Health Service Act to require certain health care facilities to physically post pricing information for common medical services on their walls. Beginning January 1, 2028, hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, laboratories, and providers of imaging services would have to display, in areas designated by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the discounted cash price (or, if unavailable, a historical median self-pay price or gross charge) for each "shoppable service" as defined by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The bill defines key terms such as "discounted cash price," "shoppable service," and "specified clinical diagnostic laboratory test" to clarify how the requirement applies.
The bill primarily affects health care facilities—hospitals, surgical centers, labs, and imaging providers—by imposing new price-disclosure obligations. It is also intended to benefit patients and consumers by making cost information for common procedures more visible and accessible before they receive care.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) on June 23, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. On July 21, 2026, the committee voted 24-21 to order the bill reported, as amended. It would next go to the full House for consideration; further action, including a House floor vote, Senate consideration, and presidential signature, would be required before it could become law.
