Questions

How much does septicemia or severe sepsis without ventilator >96 hours with major complications cost in Nevada?

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 Nevada, average charges were 10.1 times the average payment. Uninsured patients can ask the hospital about its financial assistance (charity care) policy and cash prices.
