EAST TENNESSEE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL

Knoxville, TN · CCN 443303 · Rates published

484 distinct procedures filed
6 distinct payers
8,261 rate rows
2024-10-01 last MRF observed · ⚠ 24 mo old

1,755 of 8,261 rate rows are consumer-grade (21.2%)

6,506 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 6,451
percent-of-billed methodology on a DRG bundle — not comparable to case rates; shown as context only 42
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this DRG — likely a mislabeled per-diem; excluded from rankings 13

⚠ Possibly outdated The most recent machine-readable file we have for this hospital is 24 months old.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.
