About these prices
US hospitals must publish their prices by law. We take them from each hospital's own file. They're what hospitals charge, not what patients told us they paid, and not a quote.
Hospitals are compared on the same billing code, but what each one includes in that price can differ. Doctors, anesthesia and some tests are often billed separately and aren't included.
For insurance, we show what most plans pay the hospital, leaving out the very lowest and highest. Your own share depends on your plan.
What each hospital calls it: Atrium Health Navicent Peach, “HC MRI SPINAL CANAL LUMBAR W/O CONTRAST MATERIAL”; Emory Hospital Perry, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Emory Hospital Warner Robins, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Piedmont Macon, “HC MRI Lumb Spine WO Cntrst”; Piedmont Macon North, “HC MRI Lumb Spine WO Cntrst”; Atrium Health Navicent The Medical Center, “MRI LUMBAR SPINE W/O DYE”; Monroe County Hospital, “MRI L-SPINE W/O CONTRAST”.
