Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (1) report prices above $8,250, including Davis Medical Center at $11,630, 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 $3,167 versus $1,694 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.

On top of the facility price, your actual bill depends on your deductible, your out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved - not just the facility - is in-network.
