Hospital cash prices in Colorado
57 hospitals in Colorado publish cash prices for 555 common procedures listed here; for 540 of them you can compare two or more hospitals. Pick a procedure to see every hospital's price in the state, cheapest first.
Colorado's Hospital Discounted Care law (HB21-1198): for qualifying patients with household income at or below 250% of the federal poverty level, hospitals and the clinicians who work in them may charge no more than the greater of the Medicare rate or the Medicaid base rate, and monthly payments are capped. That can be less than the cash prices below; ask the hospital to screen you for discounted care. Other states' laws.
