The negotiated price — a median of $5,814 here, usually $5,719–$5,836 — is the most representative figure: it is what health insurers actually pay Kansas City-area hospitals for a Tonsillectomy, averaged so a single outlier contract cannot distort it.

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.
