Pricing Patterns at Baptist South

Across all twelve listed services, the cash price is consistently 38% below the gross charge (for example, a brain MRI without contrast has a gross charge of $3,473 and a cash price of $2,153.26, and a chest X-ray has a gross charge of $825 and a cash price of $511.50). Insured rates span a very wide range for the same service: a 2-view chest X-ray ranges from $22.54 to $8,755, and a complete abdominal ultrasound ranges from $85.26 to $13,446, so the highest insured rate can exceed both the gross charge and the cash price. In several cases, the cash price is lower than the upper end of the insured range, such as an ER Visit Level 3 at $1,630.60 cash versus insured rates of up to $18,528, while the lowest insured rates, like $2.96 for a CBC with differential, fall well below the $75.02 cash price.

Items a reader can raise with billing. Things to ask or check:

  • Quote the billing code, such as 99284 for an ER visit or 70551 for a brain MRI, and ask for the cash or self-pay price along with an itemized estimate.
  • Ask what the quote includes and what it leaves out, since the figures here are facility charges only.
  • Ask whether separate professional bills may follow, such as a radiologist reading an imaging study, an ER physician, or a cardiologist interpreting an echocardiogram.

Zeros, blanks and the file date. No rows carry a data note, so no value was published as $0 or blank and none was dropped as a likely file error. The source CSV holds 829,515 items and was updated 2026-02-06.

Understanding the Columns

Gross Charge: The chargemaster price before any discounts. Rarely what patients pay. It is primarily a starting point for insurance negotiations.

Cash/Self-Pay: The discounted rate hospitals offer to uninsured patients. Ask about financial assistance programs for further reductions.

Insured Range: Lowest to highest negotiated rates across all payers. Medicare rates are typically lowest; commercial plan rates highest.

About Facility Fees

Prices shown are facility fees only. You'll also receive separate bills from the physician performing the procedure.

Imaging procedures include a facility fee plus a radiologist's reading fee. Surgical procedures add surgeon, anesthesia, and pathology fees.

For a more complete estimate, contact the hospital's financial counselling office or your insurer to request a pre-service cost estimate that includes all expected professional fees.
