Mark Galvin, CEO of MyMedicalShopper, said, "In the State of the Union Address, the President spotlighted the power of 'American Freedom.' This is what MyMedicalShopper empowers."

Our focus is making healthcare more affordable by empowering consumers with actionable information.

We use one of the largest databases of commercial, post-adjudicated medical claims data to power our price transparency platform and suite of cost-saving solutions.

Our flagship product provides patients with an intuitive application they can access anywhere to help them choose providers of thousands of medical tests and procedures based on price, quality, and convenience.

Our robust analytics platform provides employers with the first real-time visibility into their group claims data that helps them uncover and address every instance in which their members are unfairly victimized by hidden pricing.

A recent survey by America's Health Insurance Plans reports 75% of respondents want the government to focus on making healthcare more affordable, while two-thirds support the existing private healthcare system over a government-run system. MyMedicalShopper is becoming an essential component of delivering on consumer wishes.

We have had discussions with private and public sector healthcare leaders across the country, and look forward to working with them to make MyMedicalShopper available, and healthcare more affordable, to more American consumers.
