Oh, this makes sense! Everyone knows what 1100000003 is. Last time I had a 1100000003 was last year and my insurance paid only $1,654 for almost a 50% discount. Oh-My-Gosh, 1100000027 looks really competitive………! I’m going to Christus Health next time!

FROM CHRISTUS HEALTH WEBSITE 1 JANUARY 2019:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services are requiring every hospital to publicize a list of their standard charges online in a “machine-readable format” by Jan. 1, 2019. We have provided two types of files to meet this requirement. To meet this requirement, we’ve provided two files for each hospital:
One file includes average Charge Description Master price (which includes basic information and coding about hospital charges and is grouped by number).
One file includes average charges by Diagnosis Related Group(which includes many of the treatments you would need for a certain condition grouped together).
Please note that these lists are meant to meet the government requirement, but they do not represent all of our efforts around price transparency or affordability.
If you have questions about costs for your specific medical needs, we want to help. Each patient and medical need is different, so we’re happy to talk to you about your needs and the cost of your care. Each of the files for every one of our hospitals includes a phone number you can call to talk to someone about these costs, or—if available—instructions to request a price estimate online.
