Where You Can Get Burned (Markup Traps)
- Outpatient surgery & OR suites carry a 1.5× markup over Medicare rates
- Commercial insurance median sits at 0.95× Fair BaseRate (1.2× Medicare), so insured patients should always compare the self-pay cash price before paying.
- Even at low-cost facilities (0.89× Fair BaseRate), out-of-network or unnegotiated chargemaster bills can exceed commercial medians — confirm in-network status or request a self-pay cash quote up front.
- Consolidated metro market (HHI 3,553) limits in-network hospital competition (Highly Concentrated Monopoly (>2,500))
