Important — a price reference, not a bill

These figures are aggregated from hospitals' public price-transparency files — not a quote, a bill, an insurance benefit determination, or medical advice. Your actual out-of-pocket cost depends on your insurance plan (deductible, copay, coinsurance, network), the exact service and any complications, and which hospital you use. Always confirm price and coverage with the hospital and your insurer before care.

Who runs the 9 Atlanta-area hospitals behind these prices

6 non-profit, 3 government-run. The largest is GRADY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL at 953 beds. Ownership matters to a price file: for-profit chains and non-profit systems publish self-pay cash prices at very different rates.

22 of 34 Atlanta procedures have a published self-pay cash price

The Atlanta files behind this page span December 2025 to June 2026

Hospitals republish their Standard Charges file roughly once a year and each carries its own date, so these figures were not all filed at the same moment. Every hospital's own publication date is in its entry below.

How the negotiated, cash and chargemaster figures differ — and where each comes from — is explained on the methodology page.
