Important Facts about a Hospital’s “Chargemaster”

          •   A chargemaster is a list of medical codes and prices for everything a hospital provides to patients.

          •   Each hospital has its own chargemaster list that is used for billing purposes.

          •   The chargemaster list is not the negotiated price between hospitals and insurers, and it is not the price that most patients would pay for care.

          •   The chargemaster list is not the best tool for patients to figure out the cost of their health care services.

          •   The prices on the chargemaster list are not the actual payment rates that hospitals receive.

          •   Chargemaster prices are almost never the actual amount a patient is responsible for.

How Much Will I Pay?

The best way to understand what you will pay out-of-pocket is to work with your hospital and your insurer. In general:

          •   Individuals with insurance will pay any copayments, coinsurance, or deductible due.

          •   Individuals without insurance might be eligible for financial assistance or charity care, or may be able to receive a reduced price from the hospital.
