Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (14) report prices above $2,202, including Select Medical Rehabilitation - Madison at $6,306, 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 $654 versus $999 inpatient (about 1.5× 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.
