How is this for a crazy idea. Insurance company refunds 1/2 of any savings, if you find someone to do it cheaper.

The insurance companies have the data on both costs and outcomes, but are prohibited from disclosing it. I know of one insurance company that offered a plan where copays varied depending on the provider. If you wanted to go the the expensive teaching hospital, you could, but you would pay more than if you went to the less expensive community hospital. That is similar to what you are proposing.
