255,795 of 260,716 rate rows are consumer-grade (98.1%)

4,921 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
percent-of-billed methodology on a DRG bundle — not comparable to case rates; shown as context only 4,472
per-diem day rate — not a per-procedure price 168
percent-of-charges filed in the dollar field — excluded from medians 93
exceeds 3× this hospital's gross charge for a DRG stay — excluded 92
exceeds 10× this hospital's gross charge — excluded from medians 40
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this code — likely a mislabeled per-diem or placeholder; excluded from medians 27
no usable negotiated amount (only an out-of-band fallback) — excluded from medians 22
placeholder amount (≤ $0.02) — excluded from medians 7
