Understanding Tri-Cities (Johnson City-Kingsport-Bristol) Hospital Pricing
Hospital prices in Tri-Cities (Johnson City-Kingsport-Bristol) vary substantially across facilities and insurance plans. The same procedure performed at the same hospital can cost dramatically different amounts depending on which insurer is paying. Cash prices for uninsured patients also vary, with some hospitals offering significant discounts off their list prices while others publish cash prices identical to their gross charges.
For insured patients, the most relevant figure is your insurer's negotiated rate at a specific hospital, not the gross charge or cash price. Patients with high-deductible plans who have not met their deductible owe the negotiated rate, which makes shopping by insurer-specific rate particularly important.
For uninsured patients, the cash price represents what the hospital will accept as full payment for the service. Hospitals are also required to offer financial assistance programs that may further reduce the amount owed for patients who qualify based on income.
All prices on this page come from the hospitals' own machine-readable transparency files, published in compliance with the CMS Hospital Price Transparency Rule (45 CFR § 180). Files are updated as the hospital republishes them, and we check for changes twice weekly.
