“Negotiated” is the hospital’s negotiated rate for the entire inpatient stay under APR_DRG PAAPRDRG0204 — the consumer-grade median across the country. An inpatient (DRG) price bundles the whole admission: operating room, room & board, recovery, imaging, anesthesia (facility), implants and supplies. It does not include the surgeon’s or anesthesiologist’s professional fees, which are billed separately.
