Why this matters

Whether you're uninsured, between coverage, on a high-deductible plan, or just trying to understand what you'll actually pay, the figures on this page come straight from each provider's federally-mandated transparency file. Self-pay rates, in-network contracted rates for seven major payers, and the Medicare benchmark — all in one place, sorted by procedure. Iowa has 124 reporting medical centers; the most-shopped codes above are the ones with the broadest reporting coverage in the state. Click any procedure to drill into a side-by-side comparison across every provider that publishes a rate for it. Prices change frequently, so always confirm with the billing department before scheduling.

Methodology. Pricing data sourced from CMS-mandated hospital transparency files (45 CFR § 180). Cash prices reflect self-pay rates published by each provider. Insurance-negotiated rates cover seven major payers: BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare, and Kaiser. Verify all figures directly with the billing department before any procedure.
