Price Transparency
Standard Services Price Guide
It is important to note, a hospital “charge” is not the same as “expected payment.” A charge is the amount billed for a service. In the vast majority of cases, hospitals are paid considerably less than the billed amount. Hospital charges are based on the type of care provided and can differ from patient to patient for the same service. The differences between patients are related to complications or varying treatments needed due to the patient’s health.
Even though the hospital’s prices on our list are the same for all patients, actual charges for each specific patient may vary from the listed standard charges due to a combination of factors.
The Healthcare Financial Management Association has published a booklet, “Understanding Healthcare Prices: A Consumer Guide,” which can help you better understand where to get answers to your questions about healthcare prices, how to compare prices among providers and how to manage your out-of-pocket costs.

To help you navigate the financial aspects of your care, we’ve outlined some important terms and provided access to our standard charge list.
- Service Fee (Charge): This is the original rate assigned to a medical service before any insurance negotiations or discounts. It’s important to note that this amount is rarely what patients actually pay.
- Patient Share (Out-of-Pocket): This refers to the portion of healthcare costs you’re responsible for, which may include deductibles, copays, and coinsurance, depending on your insurance coverage.
- Negotiated Rate (Price): This is the amount Brightwell Behavioral Health has agreed upon with insurance providers. Your financial responsibility is calculated based on this contracted rate, which varies by insurance plan.
What the Charge List Represents
The charge list outlines the standard rates for services as recorded in our chargemaster. It does not reflect the actual amount paid by insurance or owed by the patient. Coverage details, including deductibles and copays, depend on your specific insurance plan.
Please note:
- The file includes service descriptions, codes, and associated charges.
- Charges are updated regularly and reflect the most recent data available.
- Professional service fees (e.g., psychiatrists, psychologists, or other licensed providers) may not be included in this list.
