Outpatient: lowest $63.96, median $222.18, highest $380.40 — a 5.9× difference within the same market.
As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 2 facilities here, median $222.18. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 80069 ($81.00). 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.
