Questions
How much does renal failure with major complications cost in Washington?
In 2024 Medicare data, a hospital stay for renal failure with major complications (DRG 682) at 38 hospitals in Washington was billed at $61,696 on average, while the average total payment was $14,066, of which Medicare paid $11,526. 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 Washington, average charges were 4.4 times the average payment. Uninsured patients can ask the hospital about its financial assistance (charity care) policy and cash prices.
