Inpatient: lowest $49.60, median $418.68, highest $787.75 — a 15.9× difference within the same market.

Both sides : lowest $187.20, median $187.20, highest $187.20.

The two groups are not comparable and are not averaged together: a price for both sides of the body covers twice the work. Merging them is how a single published "median" ends up far above what one side actually costs.

As an outpatient, the same code is billed by 3 facilities here, median $787.75 — that is the price to compare if you are not being admitted.

What it is
