Cash price — what the hospital publishes for people paying out of pocket
$839.44
| Cash price | $839.44 — the discounted cash price in the hospital's published file. |
|---|---|
| List price | $1,499 — the hospital's gross (list) charge before any discount or insurance. |
| Medicare rate (2026) | $278.89 — Medicare’s published national payment rate for this procedure (CMS Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System). It is a total rate: for most services Medicare pays about 80% of it and the patient or their supplemental plan about 20%. The amount paid to a specific hospital varies with local wage adjustments. |
| Insurance-negotiated range | $450 – $1,424.05 — the lowest and highest rates this hospital has negotiated with insurance plans for this procedure, as published in its file. |
The low end of a negotiated range can reflect a government program fee schedule (such as Medicaid) rather than a rate most patients would pay, and the high end can reflect contract formulas. Your own plan's rate sits somewhere inside the range and depends on your coverage.
