837,285 of 849,094 rate rows are consumer-grade (98.6%)

11,809 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 4,744
exceeds 10× this hospital's gross charge — excluded from medians 2,923
no usable negotiated amount (only an out-of-band fallback) — excluded from medians 2,878
per-diem day rate — not a per-procedure price 654
placeholder amount (≤ $0.02) — excluded from medians 394
template filing: same amount across many unrelated codes — excluded 164
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this code — likely a mislabeled per-diem or placeholder; excluded from medians 52
