Caregivers helping with a bill
Use the same price comparison to discuss a relative’s bill and prepare questions together.
How Medify compares medical prices
Submitted bill lines appear as individual raw observations. Similar descriptions remain separate unless a separate evidence process establishes comparability.
How it works
Each observed charge comes from one submitted bill line. Raw observations and separately cited references remain distinct evidence states.
Medify and the hospitals named have not independently confirmed these observations. Low sample sizes may not be representative.
Public descriptions exclude obvious contact details and labelled identifiers. Automated filtering cannot guarantee that arbitrary free text contains no unlabelled personal name.
01
Extract the item and price
We extract the item name, quantity, price and date shown on each submitted medical bill.
02
Publish the observation honestly
A raw bill entry may be shown as one observed charge without claiming it is equivalent to another item. Package details are shown only when they were reliably extracted.
03
Keep each observation separate
Medify publishes each eligible bill line as its own raw observation. Similar descriptions are not silently merged or treated as the same item.
Who this helps
The comparison gives patients and caregivers a clearer starting point for asking about an item on a medical bill.
Patients checking charges
Use raw observations and cited references as context, and compare only when the item, unit and package are independently established.
Claims and follow-up
Ask a hospital or insurer more specific questions. A comparison is supporting information, not proof that a charge is wrong.
Data and reference sources
Medify observations come from user-submitted Malaysian medical bills. They are not independently confirmed by Medify or the named hospitals. LIAM is a separate service-price reference guide and is not combined with submitted bill observations.
