Outpatient: lowest $594.40, median $2,145.76, highest $2,604.50 — a 4.4× difference within the same market.
As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 8 facilities here, median $2,145.76. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.
They are priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 55700 ($1,790.40). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
