The list of standard charges includes five types of charges, as applicable, in accordance with the definitions in the federal regulations. These standard charges include the gross charges included in what is commonly referred to as the hospital’s "chargemaster," payer-specific negotiated charges, which in Maryland is the All-Payer rate which applies to all payers, the maximum negotiated charge, minimum negotiated charge, and discounted cash price. It is important to note that the shoppable services list will often include charges for multiple chargemaster services, and therefore will not be comparable to any single chargemaster item.
In Maryland, the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) regulates the average rate for hospital services for all payers. Maryland acute care hospitals do not have individual negotiated rates with the insurance carriers but rather must charge all payers at the rates set by the HSCRC.
These prices show a standard range of charges that correspond to what most patients are charged. Your actual charges may be higher or lower than the amount(s) listed depending on your specific medical needs.

Information to Keep in Mind
- All prices include hospital charges only. Your doctor(s) will send you a separate bill. For an estimate of those charges, please contact your doctor(s) directly.
- Hospital approved rates generally reflect the average price of a group of similar services. Individual service charges are components of the larger group average, and therefore may vary from the price set by the HSCRC.
- Though the HSCRC sets rates as of a certain date, hospital charges for all payers are allowed to fluctuate during the course of the year, and detailed charges for certain items may be different than the average approved rate that covers a larger group of services. This is both permissible and normal as hospitals adjust charges frequently to comply with other HSCRC regulations.
- Amounts patients owe out-of-pocket will vary based on insurance provider and insurance plan. We encourage you to contact your insurance company to understand all of the factors affecting your financial responsibility.
- Numerous factors, such as type of plan, copay, coinsurance, deductible, out-of-pocket maximums, provider network and other limitations, will affect your financial responsibility to a hospital.
