What the Los Angeles numbers show
The widest gap in Los Angeles: the same Mammogram costs 40.3× as much at one hospital as at another
KAISER FOUNDATION HOSPITAL - LOS ANGELES reports $103 for a Mammogram; CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER reports $4,155 for the same billing codes, in the same metro.
Los Angeles prices run about 17% above the national middle
Comparing each of 34 procedures against the middle price across every other metro on this site, Los Angeles's typical negotiated rate is higher on 23 of them. The median ratio is 1.17× the national middle.
Gallbladder Removal is Los Angeles's biggest premium; OB Ultrasound its biggest bargain
Against the rest of the country, a Gallbladder Removal here runs 113% above the $6,489 national middle at $13,842, while an OB Ultrasound runs 23% below its $240 at $186.
Who runs the 5 Los Angeles-area hospitals behind these prices
5 non-profit. The largest is CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER at 877 beds. Ownership matters to a price file: for-profit chains and non-profit systems publish self-pay cash prices at very different rates.
13 of 34 Los Angeles procedures have a published self-pay cash price
The best-priced of them is a PSA Test at $43. Hospitals are not required to offer a cash price and most publish one only for outpatient imaging and lab work.
The Los Angeles files behind this page span November 2025 to March 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.
