# Calcium, ionized in Macon, GA Billing code `82330`. Prices for this code at 9 hospitals within 35 miles of Macon, taken from the machine-readable standard charge files each hospital is required to publish under the CMS Hospital Price Transparency Rule (45 CFR 180.50). Source page: https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/macon/calcium-ionized HC ASSAY OF CALCIUM, IONIZED - CALCIUM IONIZED ## Before quoting any figure below - **Hospital charges only.** The surgeon, anaesthetist, radiologist and pathologist bill separately and appear in no hospital price file, by construction. Every figure below is part of a total, never the total. - **A negotiated rate is not a bill.** It is what a hospital and an insurer agreed. What a patient owes depends on their deductible, coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximum. - **Each hospital's figure is a median across its own plans.** The spread inside one hospital is often wider than the gap between two of them. - **"not mentioned" is not $0.** It means this hospital's file does not label a row that way. Silence is not a statement that the charge does not exist. - **A hospital absent from the table says nothing about its prices.** It may publish this code under a revenue or drug code this site cannot map to a procedure. A procedure code is billed twice -- once by the hospital for its own costs, once by the doctor for their work -- and hospitals publish different sides of that split under the same code. Of the hospitals here, 2 publish a facility charge; 3 publish both, mixed together; 4 do not label which half the figure is. ## Typical price | | Amount | |---|---| | Lowest reported | $14 | | Typical | $53 | | Highest reported | $106 | Too few hospitals here for a decile to mean anything, so these are the true extremes and a single unusual figure can set one of them. ## Every hospital publishing this code | Hospital | Where | CMS rating | Typical | Facility charge | Physician fee | Self-pay | Lowest | Highest | Plans on file | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | Emory Houston Hospital Warner Robins | WARNER ROBINS (14.3 mi) | 2/5 | $14 | $14 | not mentioned | $68 | $10 | $29 | 12 | | Atrium Health Navicent the Medical Center | MACON (3.2 mi) | 2/5 | see split | $38 | $35 | $54 | $8 | $101 | 47 | | Piedmont Macon North Hospital | MACON (7.8 mi) | 4/5 | $38 | not mentioned | not mentioned | $80 | $12 | $239 | 26 | | Coliseum Medical Centers | MACON (6.9 mi) | 3/5 | $39 | not mentioned | not mentioned | $80 | $12 | $239 | 26 | | Navicent Health Baldwin | MILLEDGEVILLE (26.5 mi) | 2/5 | see split | $62 | $35 | $41 | $14 | $76 | 43 | | Atrium Health Navicent Peach | BYRON (16.2 mi) | 1/5 | see split | $66 | $35 | $51 | $17 | $95 | 44 | | Bleckley Memorial Hospital | COCHRAN (34.0 mi) | not rated | $65 | $65 | not mentioned | $49 | $64 | $65 | 2 | | Jasper Memorial Hospital | MONTICELLO (30.4 mi) | not rated | $85 | not mentioned | not mentioned | $39 | $54 | $90 | 19 | | Monroe County Hospital | FORSYTH (22.5 mi) | not rated | $106 | not mentioned | not mentioned | $42 | $31 | $209 | 25 | ## Self-pay Self-pay is what the hospital charges someone paying themselves rather than through insurance. Paying self-pay usually does not count toward a deductible, so it can cost less for one service and more across a year. Every other figure here is what an insurer pays, not what a patient would. At 5 of the 9 hospitals here that publish a self-pay price it is LOWER than what that same hospital typically accepts from an insurer; at the other 4 it is higher. 1 of these 9 hospitals have not published an updated price file in over a year, or do not say when they last did. Hospitals are required to update at least annually, so those figures may not reflect what they charge now: Monroe County Hospital. ## Others in lab & pathology - [Complete blood count (CBC) with differential](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/complete-blood-count-cbc-with-differential) -- 114 hospitals, typically $16 - [Lipid panel (cholesterol)](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/lipid-panel-cholesterol) -- 114 hospitals, typically $27 - [Vitamin D level](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/vitamin-d-level) -- 114 hospitals, typically $53 - [Vitamin B12](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/vitamin-b12) -- 114 hospitals, typically $27 - [Hemoglobin A1c (3-month blood sugar)](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/hemoglobin-a1c-3-month-blood-sugar) -- 114 hospitals, typically $18 - [Lipase (pancreas enzyme)](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/lipase-pancreas-enzyme) -- 114 hospitals, typically $15 - [Magnesium](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/magnesium) -- 114 hospitals, typically $13 - [BNP (heart failure blood test)](https://clearcharge.org/price/ga/bnp-heart-failure-blood-test) -- 114 hospitals, typically $68 --- Every procedure with a published price in GA: https://clearcharge.org/price/ga Prices that look wrong: info@clearcharge.org Compiled by Clearcharge (clearcharge.org) from each hospital's machine-readable standard-charge file.
