How is this computed?All-codes score: median of price ratios across every available billing code. Based on 28 billing codes published by this hospital. A broader all-codes view (every commercial billing code this hospital publishes, 23 codes) puts the score at 1.71x.

Cuba Memorial Hospital bills well above peers — about 1.74x the regional median overall. The wide price spread (C grade) means individual bills are hard to predict — a procedure priced near the median in one department may be 5x in another.

why?Too few procedures to assess

How A/B/C is determined: A = narrow price spread (IQR < 2.0×) with <5% of codes priced more than 3× the regional median. B = moderate (IQR 2.0–3.0× OR 5–20% above 3×). C = wider than that.
Limited coverage: This hospital's published transparency file primarily covers Inpatient codes (100% of 28 codes). Procedures in other categories may not be reflected.
