The "charge" is the hospital's list price — almost nobody pays it. "Total payment" is what the hospital actually received (Medicare plus patient copays and other payers). These figures cover Medicare fee-for-service inpatient stays only.

|---|---|---|---|
| Florida | 1 | $102,931 | $8,949 |
| New York | 2 | $61,848 | $11,187 |
