Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan told journalists Tuesday that he wants to see transparency on quality of medical care as much as on medical prices.

Duncan said there’s a vacuum of information on medical outcomes that he would like to see filled.

The lieutenant governor had been in the nation’s capital Monday, attending the ceremony at which President Donald Trump signed an executive order for hospitals to release their actual negotiated prices of services.
