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.
| State | Hospitals | Avg charge | Avg Medicare payment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Florida | 1 | $61,450 | $7,274 |
| Ohio | 1 | $27,997 | $6,256 |
