Vaginal delivery cost in Texas

Kerrville, TX has 57 filings for Vaginal delivery, global obstetric care. We need 100 before we will publish a market figure, so this page shows Texas instead and says so.

Reading it

What this distribution actually says.

The spread

The middle half of this market runs from $2,157 to $3,897, a 1.8x difference for the same procedure code in the same city. That gap is between contracts, not between quality.

Against Medicare

Medicare pays $2,148 for this service at its Rest Of Texas locality. We do not turn that into a percentage here, because the price above is Texas and that Medicare figure is one locality inside it. Two different maps do not divide.

The expensive end

One in ten filings sits at or above $5,980. If a plan's network is weighted toward that end, the difference does not show up in a premium quote. It shows up in the claims.

How wide the data runs

The carriers that filed for this procedure in this market. What each plan has agreed to pay, side by side. These are prices, not bills, so they do not show how often anyone needs it.
