across 47 hospitals in the Chicago metro. Lowest at MOUNT SINAI HOSPITAL MEDICAL CENTER, highest at Endeavor Health Elmhurst Hospital. Both are figures those hospitals published themselves — nothing here is averaged, estimated or rounded.

Every figure above comes from the 47 hospitals listed below and from the single billing code hospitals use for it. Each is that hospital's own published figure. 3 further hospitals publish a figure for this and are withheld below, because what they published is too incomplete to line up fairly against the rest. Those figures still count as peers wherever a comparison appears beside a price, which is why a comparison can be drawn from more hospitals than this page counts — how completely a hospital published says nothing about whether its price belongs in the comparison.

47 hospitals · 70 published rates Cheapest first

Sorted cheapest first. A published figure that behaves like a placeholder rather than a real price — one cent, or a figure orders of magnitude below what other hospitals publish for the same billing code — never leads this order. It stays listed, after every other figure, ordered by its own amount among the others like it.

Not one hospital — 3 facilities in one file This is not a single hospital. Endeavor Health Clinical Operations publishes one price file for 3 of its facilities — Endeavor Health Evanston Hospital, Endeavor Health Glenbrook Hospital and Endeavor Health Skokie Hospital — and names all 3 without saying which of them any price belongs to, so these figures cannot be split between them. The address we show for it — 2650 Ridge Ave, Evanston, IL 60201 — is the one this file gives for Endeavor Health Evanston Hospital, one of the 3, and not an address of its own. We list it under "Endeavor Health Skokie Hospital", the name that publisher's own index of its files gave this one; the file's own header calls it "Endeavor Health Clinical Operations". The prices are served in full, exactly as published; what no file here can tell you is which of the 3 you would be charged at.
