$115.39 – $2,434.05

The same procedure, at this one hospital, ranges from $115.39 to $2,434.05. That is not an error, and it is not our arithmetic — it is what the hospital published.

The difference is between insurers and plans. Each negotiates its own rate, so which figure applies to you depends on the card in your wallet.

What Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois pays here

Every rate this hospital published under a name we recognise as Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, cheapest first, grouped by plan and then by the hospital's own line item. Which one is yours depends on your plan and on which line item this hospital bills the service under — the file does not know which card you carry, and does not say which line item it would use.

How complete the paperwork is

What Rush University Medical Center published — and what it left out

Federal law tells hospitals what to publish. This score is our reading of how much of that Rush University Medical Center 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.

0.93/ 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.

0.00 Publishing threshold 0.50 1.00

The four parts of Rush University Medical Center's disclosure-completeness score, each with its weight, its value, and what was counted.
What we checked Weight Scored Added
How many common services carry a price Near full credit 57 of 70 CMS shoppable services have an unflagged gross or cash dollar amount. 0.40 0.81 0.33
How often the price is a dollar amount Full credit 572625 of 572625 negotiated rates are dollar amounts rather than formulas. 0.25 1.00 0.25
How recently the file was updated Full credit Current: file states last_updated_on 2026-07-22 (84 days old). 0.20 1.00 0.20
How many rows are usable figures Full credit 0 of 653875 rows are quality-flagged (placeholder, zero, blank, or algorithm-only). 0.15 1.00 0.15
Total 0.93

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.

Where these numbers came from

Provenance

Every figure above was read from a file this hospital publishes because federal law requires it. Nothing here is estimated, modelled, or supplied by us.
