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: San Joaquin Community Hospital, “Emergency department visit with high level of medical decision making”; Adventist Health Medical Center Tehachapi, “Emergency department visit with high level of medical decision making”; Adventist Health Delano, “Emergency department visit with high level of medical decision making”; Ridgecrest Regional Hospital, “Emergency dept visit”; Bakersfield Memorial Hospital, “ER LEVEL 5”; Mercy Hospitals – Bakersfield, “ER LEVEL 5”; Kern Medical Center, “ED Visit Level 5 (99285)”.
