with UnitedHealthcare data

UnitedHealthcare's negotiated ER visit rates across eight Orlando-area hospitals span a 24x range, from $289.05 at UF Health The Villages Hospital to $6,991.47 at UCF Lake Nona Hospital. The median rate is $2,712.60. The lowest figure is a Medicare Advantage rate, and low rates often reflect Medicaid or Medicare plans rather than commercial coverage.

Why the range is so wide: UnitedHealthcare negotiates different rates for different plan types. Medicaid-managed and Medicare Advantage plans typically have the lowest negotiated rates. Commercial PPO and HMO plans are higher. The "lowest rate" at each hospital may be a Medicaid or Medicare plan rate, not a commercial plan rate. The plan type is shown in the table where available.

What UnitedHealthcare members can ask before an Orlando ER visit. These are facility rates, and professional fees are billed separately. Members can ask:

  • UnitedHealthcare for the negotiated rate and estimated cost share under their own plan at a named hospital
  • UnitedHealthcare whether that hospital is in network for their plan
  • The hospital for an estimate

Understanding UnitedHealthcare Negotiated Rates

A negotiated rate is the price UnitedHealthcare 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 UnitedHealthcare plan types at each facility.

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

How many Orlando hospitals have published UnitedHealthcare rates?

8 hospitals in the Orlando area have published UnitedHealthcare negotiated rates for ER Visit in their CMS transparency files. Having a published rate does not necessarily confirm current network participation. Verify your network status with UnitedHealthcare directly.

Will UnitedHealthcare cover an out-of-network ER visit?

Under the No Surprises Act, emergency services must be covered regardless of network status. UnitedHealthcare cannot charge you more than your in-network cost-sharing for emergency care, even at an out-of-network hospital. This applies to the ER visit itself, though follow-up care after you are stabilized may be billed differently.
