Questions

Frequently asked questions

How Curex works, where the data comes from, and how your privacy is protected.

Where does Curex get its data?

Prices come from two sources: hospitals' federally required published price files, and Florida's official Health Price Finder tool, which the state runs using real claims data from major insurers.

Is my personal information safe?

Curex doesn't require an account or collect personal health information. Prices shown are regional averages, not tied to any individual's data.

How do I use the tool?

Go to Compare, find the procedure you're looking for, and see cash and insurance-adjusted prices across each hospital we track.

Who can benefit from Curex?

Anyone in Southwest or South Florida planning a procedure, comparing hospitals, or just trying to understand what care actually costs before a bill arrives.

Is Curex really free to use?

Yes. No account, no fee, no catch. It's a research and transparency project, not a business.

Does Curex show my exact insurance price?

No — insurance-adjusted numbers are regional averages across major insurers, not a personalized quote. Your actual cost depends on your specific plan. Contact your insurer or the hospital's billing office for an exact estimate.
