Interesting to read that only 33%-50% of hospitals comply with the law and post their prices. If there's one thing this country needs to do it's demand transparency everywhere.
Especially our government. Spending. Salaries. It all needs to be public.

This is especially useful for valuable gov't employees that want to negotiate a higher salary :) Totally fine by me, but just be aware you may not realize the second order effects. The primary people that care may actually just be the employees for pay fairness
The US government is the last entity that should be playing games with salary negotiations. The G payment schedules are well established and can be updated. If they need to figure out other ways of providing a salary, they can update the existing schedules or make a new set that is also publicly available. If I’m paying taxes to provide a salary for a federal employee, I want that to be recorded, publicly accessible, and for there to be a controller somewhere accountable for how they money is allocated.
