22 Georgia hospitals publish gross charges for bone infection (DRG 540). Prices range from $8,564 to $105,943 — roughly $97,379 apart. The cheapest is Bacon County Hospital in Alma; the most expensive is Piedmont Mountainside in Jasper. The state average sits at $56,251.
The number you see is each hospital's published "list price" — the gross charge for the facility component of bone infection. Insurance plans negotiate substantial discounts, Medicare and Medicaid pay fixed federal rates, and uninsured patients can usually qualify for a cash-pay discount. But the gross charge still works as a useful benchmark: a hospital that lists bone infection at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.
If you're scheduling bone infection in Georgia, sort the list below by price, then click each hospital name to see its quality profile — CMS overall star rating, surgical-safety measures, readmission rates, patient-experience scores. The cheapest hospital isn't always the right call. Teaching hospitals often charge more because they take complex cases, and a higher-rated community hospital may deliver equivalent outcomes for a straightforward case at a lower price. Use the price column to narrow the field; use the quality data to make the final call.
Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Georgia hospitals missing from the list either don't perform bone infection in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 540 in their most recent MRF, or fell below our data-quality thresholds (we filter out clearly erroneous entries like $0 charges). The list refreshes as hospitals update their files.
