Questions

How much does craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures without complications cost in Florida?

In 2024 Medicare data, a hospital stay for craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures without complications (DRG 027) at 12 hospitals in Florida was billed at $126,420 on average, while the average total payment was $23,165, of which Medicare paid $18,897. Your own cost depends on your insurance, deductible and the hospital.

Why are hospital charges so much higher than payments?

Charges are a hospital's list prices. Medicare pays fixed rates set in advance, and private insurers negotiate their own discounts, so almost nobody pays the full charge. For this stay in Florida, average charges were 5.5 times the average payment. Uninsured patients can ask the hospital about its financial assistance (charity care) policy and cash prices.
