How much does tendonitis, myositis and bursitis with major complications cost in New York?

In 2024 Medicare data, a hospital stay for tendonitis, myositis and bursitis with major complications (DRG 557) at 4 hospitals in New York was billed at $149,875 on average, while the average total payment was $22,244, of which Medicare paid $17,137. 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.
