Head Injury with Brief Coma Cost in Virginia — Compare All Hospitals

7 Virginia hospitals publish gross charges for head injury with brief coma (DRG 085). Prices range from $41,892 to $82,216 — roughly $40,324 apart. The cheapest is Carilion Medical Center in Roanoke; the most expensive is Sovah Health - Danville in Danville. The state average sits at $47,653.

These numbers are list prices — what the hospital bills before any insurance adjustment. 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 head injury with brief coma at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.

You usually don't choose a hospital during an urgent head injury with brief coma admission. This page is for the planning side: patients with chronic conditions weighing their options, caregivers picking ahead of time, or employers comparing in-network facilities. Click any hospital name for its full quality profile — CMS overall star rating, mortality and readmission rates, patient-experience scores. When two nearby hospitals look similar on quality, the one with lower published charges is the safer default for routine medical admissions.

Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Virginia hospitals missing from the list either don't perform head injury with brief coma in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 085 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.
