Insurance plans negotiate substantial discounts, Medicare and Medicaid pay fixed federal rates, and uninsured patients can usually qualify for a cash-pay discount.

Massachusetts hospitals missing from the list either don't perform complications of medical treatment in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 919 in their most recent MRF, or fell below our data-quality thresholds (we filter out clearly erroneous entries like $0 charges).
