121 rates across 48 insurers that are not yours. Context, not your price.

$900 – $8,500

Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago publishes no Meridian (Medicaid) rate for CT scan of abdomen and pelvis. We could put one of the 121 rates below in this space, and it would be wrong: a rate is negotiated between one hospital and one insurer, so what any of those insurers pays here tells you nothing about what Meridian (Medicaid) pays.

The file does not say why it is missing — Meridian (Medicaid) may not be contracted here for this service, or the hospital may have left it out of the disclosure it is required to publish. Both are worth asking about: ask the hospital for the rate, and ask Meridian (Medicaid) whether this hospital is in your network.

The same procedure, at this one hospital, ranges from $900 to $8,500. That is not an error, and it is not our arithmetic — it is what the hospital published.

Two things are happening. Rates differ between insurers and plans, as you would expect — and the same plan also appears more than once at different prices. Each rate below is shown with the hospital's own line-item description, so you can read how its file labels them. The file does not say which one you would be billed under, so we show every figure rather than pick one.

How complete the paperwork is

What Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago published — and what it left out

Federal law tells hospitals what to publish. This score is our reading of how much of that Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago actually did publish. It is a measure of their paperwork, not their care. We hold no clinical, safety, or outcome data about any hospital, and nothing here should be read as a comment on the medicine.

0.86/ 1.00

At or above our 0.50 threshold, so this hospital appears in comparisons. A passing score means the file is complete enough to compare, not that it is complete.

The four parts of Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago's disclosure-completeness score, each with its weight, its value, and what was counted.
What we checked	Weight	Scored	Added

How often the price is a dollar amount Near full credit 5230123 of 5230553 negotiated rates are dollar amounts rather than formulas.	0.25	1.00	0.25

Total			0.86

Each part is scored from 0 to 1 and multiplied by its weight; the four add up to the total above. Every count in the right-hand column came from the hospital's own file — we did not estimate, impute, or fill a gap on their behalf. Where the file is thin, the score is thin, and the gap belongs to the publisher.
