Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (6) report prices above $6,900, including SHOALS HOSPITAL at $18,449, 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 $2,690 versus $3,594 inpatient (about 1.3× more), 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.
