Questions

How much does level 3 electrophysiologic procedures cost in Wisconsin?

In 2024 Medicare data, level 3 electrophysiologic procedures (APC 5213) at 30 hospitals in Wisconsin was billed at $114,169 on average, while the average medicare-allowed amount was $21,780, of which Medicare paid $20,147. 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 service in Wisconsin, average charges were 5.2 times the average payment. Uninsured patients can ask the hospital about its financial assistance (charity care) policy and cash prices.
