Note from the file: The file posted here reflects charges for items and services provided by UM Charles Regional Medical Center as of June 8, 2026. This type of file is commonly referred to as the hospitals �charge master.� In Maryland, the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) regulates the average rate for hospital services. Though the HSCRC sets rates as of a certain date, hospital charges are allowed to fluctuate during the course of the year, and detailed charges for certain items may be different than the average approved rate that covers a larger group of services. This is both permissible and normal as Maryland hospitals must adjust charges to comply with HSCRC regulatory requirements.

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.
