Hospital Prices No Longer Secret As New Data Reveals Bewildering System,
Staggering Cost Differences
When a patient arrives at Bayonne Hospital Center in New Jersey requiring
treatment for the respiratory ailment known as COPD, or chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, she faces an official price tag of $99,690.
Less than 30 miles away in the Bronx, N.Y., the Lincoln Medical and Mental
Health Center charges only $7,044 for the same treatment, according to a massive
federal database of national health care costs made public on Wednesday.
Americans have long become accustomed to bewilderment and anxiety when
confronting health care bills. The new database underscores why, revealing the
perplexing assortment of prices for medical care, with the details of bills
seemingly untethered to any graspable principle.
Even within the same metropolitan area, hospitals charge prices that differ
by staggering degrees for the same procedures. People without health insurance
pay vastly higher costs for care when less expensive options are often available
nearby. Virtually everyone who seeks health care winds up paying inflated prices
in one form or another as these stark disparities in price sow inefficiencies
throughout the market.
While this basic picture has emerged as the consensus reality among health
care experts, their evidence has been primarily anecdotal. Hospitals have
protected their price lists -- documents known as charge masters -- as closely
guarded secrets.
Their prices are secret no more.
The database released on Wednesday by the federal Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services lays out for the first time and in voluminous detail how much
the vast majority of American hospitals charge for the 100 most common inpatient
procedures billed to Medicare. The database -- which covers claims filed within
fiscal year 2011 -- spans 163,065 individual charges recorded at 3,337 hospitals
located in 306 metropolitan areas.
The Obama administration shared the data in advance with The Huffington Post,
The New York Times and The Washington Post. What emerges through a preliminary
analysis is a snapshot of an incoherent system in which prices for critical
medical services vary seemingly at random -- from state to state, region to
region and hospital to hospital.
These price differences impose a uniquely punishing burden on the estimated
49 million Americans who have no health insurance, experts say. They are the
only ones who see on their bill the dollar amounts listed on these official
price lists. Yet these same prices effectively shape what nearly everyone pays
for health care, because they determine how much private health insurance
companies must surrender in reimbursement for services. That in turn influences
the size of the premiums that insurance companies charge their customers.
Obama administration officials declined to characterize the causes of these
gaping disparities in price, leaving unclear whether they reflect some form of
malevolence -- profiteering by some institutions or price-rigging -- or rather
more nebulous factors, such as varying estimates about the underlying costs of
providing services.

Administration officials said they offered up the data with hopes that its
release would administer a market corrective, forcing hospitals to take greater
heed of competitors while arming ordinary people with information they could use
to seek a better deal. The data could also spur health insurance companies to
negotiate with hospitals to seek lower prices.
"Our purpose for posting this information is to shine a much stronger light
on these practices," said Jonathan Blum, director of the Center for Medicare.
"What drives some hospitals to have significantly higher charges than their
geographic peers? I don't think anyone here has come up with a good economic
argument."
The very fact that prices are now public may bring change, he added.
"Hopefully, it will cause hospitals themselves to take a hard look at their
charge-master practices and to ask hard questions of themselves as an industry
why there is so much variation," he said.
Within the nation’s largest metropolitan area, the New York City area, a
joint replacement runs anywhere between $15,000 and $155,000. At two hospitals
in the Los Angeles area, the cost of the same treatment for pneumonia varies by
$100,000, according to the database.
Public access to this data on hospital charges pulls back the curtain on one
of the most troubling characteristics of the American health care system:
Medical providers set their prices in ways that seem arbitrary, with little
oversight and practically no market incentive to reduce them, because almost no
one actually pays the official rates.
The data lands as unexpected health care bills continue to be a leading cause
of financial ruin for American families. Uninsured and low-income people are
often subject to
aggressive debt collection by hospitals and their agents when their
illnesses result in bills they cannot pay.
Even among people of means, skepticism about American health care is common
and with reasons based in data:
Americans typically pay higher prices for health care than people in other
countries,
without gaining higher-quality care or superior health.
The new trove of billing data seems certain to amplify calls for a solution
to rising medical costs -- not only for ordinary people, but for the economy as
a whole.
Health care spending continues to grow faster than the economy, though the
rate of increase has
slowed in recent years, prompting hopes that a fix may be materializing.
In 1999, average charges billed to Medicare were equal to 104 percent of the
cost to provide medical care, according to a report issued last June by the
Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, an expert panel that counsels Congress. By
2010,
the ratio had more than doubled to 218 percent.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services long has had access to
hospital charges via the cost reports facilities must submit to the agency, said
Blum, the Obama administration official. Before now, few had given a thought to
making the data public. His agency's actions were inspired in part by
a sweeping Time magazine article on hospital charges by author Steven Brill
published in March, Blum said.
The newly released data covers facilities that were collectively responsible
for 90 percent of inpatient claims to Medicare while excluding certain
institutions, such as children's hospitals and cancer centers.
The Huffington Post reviewed the two dozen types of services billed to
Medicare at least 100,000 times in fiscal 2011 in 13 metropolitan areas spanning
the U.S. The locations varied in population from less than 1 million to the
largest three metro areas: New York; Los Angeles; Chicago; Portland, Ore.;
Austin, Texas; Jacksonville, Fla.; Richmond, Va.; Birmingham, Ala.;
Tucson, Ariz.; Honolulu; Madison, Wis.; Provo, Utah; and Chattanooga, Tenn.
How is it possible that two hospitals in close proximity would set prices as
differently as Bayonne Hospital Center in New Jersey and the Lincoln Medical and
Mental Health Center in New York? It's partly a relic of how hospitals used to
operate and partly reflects their strategies to maximize revenues in ways that
don't have a direct connection to the cost of the care they provide any
individual patient.
"The charge masters are totally irrational," Robert Laszewski, a former
health insurance company executive who consults for health care companies as
president of Alexandria, Va.-based Health Policy and Strategy Associates, wrote
in an email to The Huffington Post.
Hospitals used to base prices on health care costs and on the need for profit
that would, among other things, enable them to make investments in their
facilities, Laszewski explained. "They became the baseline from which the
hospitals started," he wrote. But over time, hospitals raised charges in
anticipation of negotiating discounts with private health insurance companies
while maintaining their revenue streams, he said.
Prices have continued growing over decades to the point where there is no
plausible justification for them, according to Laszewski: "Over the years, the
charge masters have become more and more disconnected from reality."
The charges are the prices hospitals establish themselves for the services
they provide. Although Medicare and Medicaid don't base their payment rates on
these figures, private health insurance companies typically do, which means they
usually pay more for the same health care than the government does. That
translates into higher premiums for people with insurance. And uninsured people
are expected to pay the full list price or a discount from that number, which
tends to mean they pay more than anyone else.
When a hospital doesn't get paid as much as it wants from one source, it
tries to make up the difference in other ways, such as billing so-called
self-pay patients -- almost always the uninsured -- for the full list price of a
service, said Robert Huckman, a health care expert at Harvard Business School.
Even when hospitals agree to huge discounts for patients who can't pay the bill,
those discounts are taken from inflated prices much higher than those the
government or private insurance companies pay, he said.
"The charge master is complete nonsense that really doesn't matter -- unless
you are an uninsured person and you're getting these huge bills driving you
toward bankruptcy," Laszewski wrote. "The biggest irony of the U.S. health care
system is that only the uninsured -- often people who don't have a lot of money
-- are the only ones the hospital expects to pay these incredibly inflated list
prices!"
Hospitals also inflate charges to raise money for things that aren't related
to treatments, said former Sen. David Durenberger (R-Minn.), who is senior
health policy fellow at the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis.
"The biggest factor by far, in my experience, is what are you trying to
cross-subsidize," he said. Hospitals will increase charges to finance things
like technology upgrades and education and research and to compensate for their
operational efficiencies, Durenberger said.
Myriad reasons legitimately explain how a health care service may be priced
much differently from area to area, including labor costs and other local
economic circumstances. But such factors fail to explain price discrepancies
among hospitals in close proximity, Huckman said. "There's no doubt that the
variation in charges is significantly larger than the variation in the
underlying costs for these hospitals," he said.
The new Medicare database is replete with examples of inexplicably high
prices and wide variations between hospitals in the same geographic area. The
peculiar disorganization of the American health care system is evident by
looking at just a few instances.
In the New York metro area, Bayonne Hospital Center -- part of a chain called
CarePoint Healthcare -- charges the highest prices for several types of
procedures, including COPD treatment, among the regional hospitals reviewed by
HuffPost. Its price for that treatment runs four times the average in the New
York area, according to the database. Medicare -- the government health care
program for older people and people with disabilities -- paid an average of
$6,826 for these same treatments within the New York area -- or less than 7
percent of Bayonne Hospital Center's charge.
Major joint replacement surgery at the hospital comes in at $155,769, which
is almost three times the local average and more than nine times the price at
Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center in the Bronx. Medicare paid an average
$18,944 in that area.
Garfield Medical Center in Monterey Park, Calif., outside Los Angeles,
charges $241,654 to take care of a patient undergoing renal failure with major
complications, which is almost 10 times the price at Beverly Hospital about 5
miles away in Montebello and more than three times the regional average.
And Birmingham's Brookwood Medical Center has the highest charges in 14 of
the 24 Medicare billing categories in area facilities HuffPost reviewed,
including a $156,958 price for simple pneumonia and inflammation of the lung.
That's almost 12 times what the same treatment costs at Russell Hospital about
an hour away in Alexander City, Ala., and about four times the local average.
Loyola Gottlieb Memorial Hospital in Melrose Park, Ill., outside Chicago,
charged the highest prices for 16 of the 24 procedures reviewed by HuffPost. For
kidney failure, Loyola Gottlieb charged $97,926, more than twice average cost of
59 hospitals in the Chicago area. The price is more than five times what John H.
Stroger Jr. Hospital, 12 miles to the east, charges.
Those numbers reflect data from fiscal year 2011, and an official from Loyola
University Health System, which runs the Gottlieb Memorial Hospital, said the
hospital has reduced charges by an average 25 percent since then. "Loyola
University Health System closely monitors charges and conducts reviews regularly
to ensure that the health system is competitive in the Chicago market," said
Chief Financial Officer Jay Sial, in a written statement.
The other hospitals named in this article did not respond to or declined
requests for comment.
The public availability of hospital charges is unlikely to bring swift and
radical change to pricing or spare uninsured patients from exorbitant bills,
said Huckman, the Harvard health care expert. Still, he added, it’s a good
start.
"It would be hard for a hospital -- unless there's a justified reason -- to
be able to preserve a large margin over what its otherwise equal competitors
charge," Huckman said. "If someone knows the amount that even the most
advantaged payer reimburses a hospital for a particular service and they can
take that in with their own bill, I think that gives a pretty powerful
opportunity for that customer to interact with the organization and say, 'Why is
my number so different?'"
