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.

|---|---|---|---|
| California | 1 | $237,986 | $34,545 |
| Missouri | 1 | $168,213 | $26,563 |
