Pricing Transparency
In accordance with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) guidelines, BMC Hospitals provides a comprehensive list of our gross charges, negotiated rates, cash-discounted rates, and the minimum and maximum negotiated rates for all hospital services across our health system. It is important to understand the difference between gross charges and negotiated rates. Gross charges refer to the standard price billed to all patients, irrespective of insurance coverage. Negotiated rates refer to the agreed-upon amount that an insurance company will pay for a service.
Final gross charges can vary based on several factors, such as the time spent in surgery and recovery, specific equipment, supplies, and implants used, additional tests required by the physician, and any special care or unexpected conditions or complications.
Please note that this information does not reflect the exact amount you may owe. The actual amount will depend on your insurance benefits, including deductibles, copays, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket maximums. For assistance in preparing for an upcoming healthcare visit or to secure an estimate, please contact a Patient Financial Advisor.
