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: University of Michigan Health-Sparrow Ionia, “HB MRI, Lumbar Spine”; University of Michigan Health-Sparrow Carson, “HB MRI, Lumbar Spine”; Corewell Health Blodgett Hospital, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Corewell Health Butterworth Hospital, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; University of Michigan Health – West, “HB MRI Spine Lumbar WO Contrast”; Trinity Health Grand Rapids, “HC MRI Lumbar Spine W/O Contrast”; Corewell Health Greenville, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Corewell Health Pennock, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Corewell Health Zeeland, “Mri lumbar spine w/o dye”; Trinity Health Grand Haven Hospital, “MRI LUMBAR SPINAL CORD W O CON”.
