Reading these prices
- A higher price does not mean better care. Quality stars come from CMS and are shown separately; they don’t go into the price labels.
- A hospital can list several rates for the same procedure, one per plan; we show the middle of them. When one plan, or the cash price, has several separate lines, they may be parts of one bill (for example the hospital’s fee and the fee of the doctor who reads a scan) or alternatives (inpatient or outpatient). We show their range, don’t compare them yet, and list every line on the hospital’s page.
- A very low rate can be one line item (for example, a supply charge), not the whole procedure.
- Not published means the hospital’s own price file has no price of that kind for this service (some list insurer rates but leave the cash or list price blank). If you’re uninsured or paying yourself, ask the hospital for a Good Faith Estimate; federal law (No Surprises Act) requires one when you schedule or ask.

Surgery centers
Outpatient surgery centers in Washington that billed Traditional Medicare for Transrectal ultrasound, most Medicare services first. Medicare usually pays a surgery center less than a hospital outpatient department for the same procedure.
| Surgery center | Times billed to Traditional Medicare (2024) | Traditional Medicare amount for the center’s own fee (2024) |
|---|---|---|
| Spokane Urology, Pllc | 329 | $58.29 |
| Pacific Northwest Urology Specialists, Pllc | 52 | $62.92 |
Reading the surgery center list
- The amount is what Traditional Medicare (original Medicare) approved for the center’s own facility fee: Medicare’s payment plus the patient’s share. The doctor, and anesthesia if you have it, bill separately (see Doctors and practices below).
- It is not what commercial insurance or Medicare Advantage pays. Ask the center for its cash price, or your insurer for its rate there.
- CMS doesn’t publish counts under 11 patients, so centers that rarely bill Medicare for this aren’t listed.
- There’s no quality score here yet: CMS reports surgery center quality by a different facility number than the one in this file.
Doctors and practices

Reading the doctor list
- A higher price doesn’t mean better care. The quality score and the price come from different CMS files and are shown separately on purpose.
- The amount is what Traditional Medicare (original Medicare) approved for the doctor’s or lab’s own service: Medicare’s payment plus the patient’s share. It is not what commercial insurance or Medicare Advantage pays, and the hospital or surgery center bills separately (surgery centers aren’t in this list).
- The Medicare quality score is CMS’s MIPS final score (0 to 100), based mostly on the doctor’s Medicare patients. About half of doctors aren’t scored, so Not rated says nothing bad about a doctor. A group’s score covers everyone in the group.
- CMS doesn’t publish counts under 11 patients, so doctors who rarely bill Medicare for this aren’t listed, and No price published means CMS has no amount for that setting.
- Independent practice means CMS lists no group for the doctor, or a group of one. None on file for hospitals is common for office-based doctors and doesn’t mean anything is wrong.
