The public reporting of clinical and operational performance measures is old news for chief nurse executives (CNEs). Since the advent of value-based purchasing and patient experience measures, CNEs have partnered with other executives to ensure organizational readiness and success with the performance measures being publicly shared. In 2018, healthcare organizations face a new wave of public reporting expectations-price. Once again, executives will need to ensure organizational readiness. Chief nurse executives must analyze the impact of this trend on the nursing enterprise and carefully consider how to best prepare for healthcare price transparency.
