Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (7) report prices above $1,678, including STONEWALL JACKSON HOSPITAL at $5,545, which drives most of the overall spread - excluding them, most facilities cluster in a much tighter band. Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $545 versus $1,887 inpatient (about 3.5× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.

What you pay out of pocket on top of this depends on your deductible, your plan's out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved is in-network - not just the facility.
