The Miriam Hospital Cost of Care and Price Transparency
Part of being a well-informed patient is learning all you can about the treatment or procedure you will undergo. Also important is knowing the costs involved, how much you may be responsible to pay, and how much other hospitals or medical facilities charge for the same care. To keep patients fully informed, The Miriam Hospital publishes the charges for its services online.
Many Factors Can Affect the Final Cost of Care.
The price of your care may vary from the listed charges due to a range of factors, such as:
- The length of time in surgery
- The equipment, supplies, or medications used
- The treatment plan your physician decides is best for you
In addition, insurers negotiate discounts with hospitals and other providers, while Medicare and Medicaid reimburse hospitals based on diagnostic related groups (DRGs), ambulatory payment classifications (APCs), or fee schedules.
If you have any questions regarding hospital charges, please call 401-793-2206. If you have questions about charges related to diagnostic imaging, please call 401-444-7771.
