643 distinct procedures filed
22 distinct payers
14,915 rate rows
2025-01-01 last MRF observed · ⚠ 21 mo old

5,097 of 14,915 rate rows are consumer-grade (34.2%)

9,818 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 9,799
percent-of-billed methodology on a DRG bundle — not comparable to case rates; shown as context only 17
below 25% of the Medicare reference for this DRG — likely a mislabeled per-diem; excluded from rankings 2

⚠ Possibly outdated The most recent machine-readable file we have for this hospital is 21 months old.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.
