14 Connecticut hospitals publish gross charges for fractures, sprains & dislocations (DRG 563). Prices range from $16,902 to $49,769 — roughly $32,867 apart. The cheapest is Charlotte Hungerford Hospital in Torrington; the most expensive is Yale New Haven Hospital (Acute Care — New Haven) in New Haven. The state average sits at $39,257.

The number you see is each hospital's published "list price" — the gross charge for the facility component of fractures, sprains & dislocations. 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 fractures, sprains & dislocations at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.

If you're scheduling fractures, sprains & dislocations in Connecticut, 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.

9 of the 14 ranked hospitals are teaching hospitals — academic medical centers that train medical residents. They tend to take higher-acuity patients than community hospitals, which often pushes both their CMS star ratings down and their gross charges up. For complex or rare presentations a teaching hospital may genuinely be the better clinical choice even at the higher price. For a routine case, a high-rated community hospital can deliver equivalent outcomes for less.
