Outpatient: lowest $3.65, median $42.80, highest $450.68 — a 123.5× difference within the same market.

As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 21 facilities here, median $20.80. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.

25 rows held back from this comparison

They are priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 81001 ($36.50). 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.
