Michigan hospitals price premature newborn (Medicare DRG 792) anywhere from $2,641 to $26,153 — a $23,512 gap between the cheapest and most expensive option. The cheapest is Mclaren Port Huron in Port Huron; the most expensive is University of Michigan Health-West in Wyoming. The state average sits at $10,887.
Gross charges are list prices, not what most patients pay. 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 premature newborn at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.
For premature newborn in Michigan, the price below is each hospital's gross charge for the facility portion of delivery — your actual out-of-pocket depends on insurance, length of stay, complications, and whether the obstetrician bills separately. Click any hospital name for its full maternity profile, including CMS star rating, patient-experience scores, and (where designated) the CMS Birthing-Friendly Hospital marker — a useful signal of maternity-care quality.
Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Michigan hospitals missing from the list either don't perform premature newborn in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 792 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.
