What these numbers are — and aren't. These are facility rates hospitals publish under the CMS Hospital
Price Transparency rule (45 CFR Part 180). They are price information, not a quote or guarantee. Physician, anesthesia,
radiology, and pathology services usually bill separately. Your actual cost depends on your insurance plan, deductible,
