The Johns Hopkins Hospital
Estimated Average Charges for Common Procedures (updated 10/6/2014)
The tables below provide estimated average charges for common inpatient and outpatient procedures
at The Johns Hopkins Hospital. These tables are updated quarterly and are based on the patient charges
actually incurred for these services during the previous twelve months. They may be used by patients to
estimate the charge for services that they may incur.
Please note that these are only estimates and are subject to change without notice. The actual cost of
your procedure may be higher or lower based on factors specific to your case, such as your length of stay
in the hospital and the complexity of your medical condition. If you have questions regarding an
estimated charge, please call Accounts Management at 443 997-0643.
These estimates reflect hospital charges only. They do not include physician or other provider fees
that are billed separately from the hospital fees. You may receive bills from multiple physicians for their
services, including but not limited to your anesthesiologist, hospitalist, pathologist, radiologist,
cardiologist, emergency room physician, and other specialists who participate in your care. If you have
questions regarding the bill for their services, please contact the individual provider.
