Understanding Aetna Negotiated Rates
A negotiated rate is the price Aetna has agreed to pay a hospital for a specific service. This is not necessarily what you pay out of pocket. If you have met your annual deductible, you typically pay a copay or coinsurance percentage of the negotiated rate. If you have not met your deductible, you may owe the full negotiated rate.
The same insurer often negotiates different rates at different hospitals, and different plan types (HMO, PPO, high-deductible) within the same insurer can have different rates at the same hospital. The table above shows the range across all Aetna plan types at each facility.
Prices shown are facility fees only. You will also receive separate bills from the physician performing the procedure.
