MAJOR SHOULDER OR ELBOW JOINT PROCEDURES WITH CC/MCC

This facility filed a payer-negotiated range for this code ($1,004 to $11,938), not a single rate. The comparison board shows the midpoint estimate.

11,297 distinct procedures filed
94 distinct payers
1,258,732 rate rows
2026-11-02 last MRF observed

1,162,468 of 1,258,732 rate rows are consumer-grade (92.4%)

96,264 rows are marked excluded from the consumer medians — these stay visible in the raw drill-down with the same reason shown here, so nothing is silently hidden.

Excluded — reasonRows
per-diem day rate — not a per-procedure price 65,164
percent-of-billed methodology on a DRG bundle — not comparable to case rates; shown as context only 17,313
no usable negotiated amount (only an out-of-band fallback) — excluded from medians 12,555
exceeds 10× this hospital's gross charge — excluded from medians 688
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this DRG — likely a mislabeled per-diem; excluded from rankings 371
template filing: same amount across many unrelated codes — excluded 86
placeholder amount (≤ $0.02) — excluded from medians 77
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this code — likely a mislabeled per-diem or placeholder; excluded from medians 10
