16 distinct payers
128,248 rate rows
2025-06-27 last MRF observed · ⚠ 16 mo old

102,686 of 128,248 rate rows are consumer-grade (80.1%)

25,562 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
no usable negotiated amount (only an out-of-band fallback) — excluded from medians 13,876
percent-of-billed methodology on a DRG bundle — not comparable to case rates; shown as context only 9,939
template filing: same amount across many unrelated codes — excluded 1,710
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this code — likely a mislabeled per-diem or placeholder; excluded from medians 19
placeholder amount (≤ $0.02) — excluded from medians 10
exceeds 10× this hospital's gross charge — excluded from medians 8

⚠ Possibly outdated The most recent machine-readable file we have for this hospital is 16 months old. CMS requires hospitals to refresh these files at least annually, so newer rates may exist that we haven't ingested yet. The prices below are exactly as last filed.
