How it works
What if my actual bill doesn't match the published price?
Ask for an itemized bill, compare each line against the hospital's own published file, and flag mismatches to the hospital's billing office and, if needed, your state's insurance regulator.
Example
A published $850 cash price for a CT scan arrives on your bill as $1,600. Request an itemized statement — it may include a separate facility fee or contrast charge not reflected in the single published price, or it may be a billing error worth disputing.
