Financial Management Average charge for COVID-19 hospitalization, by state The cost of a complex and noncomplex COVID-19 hospitalization in each state varies, according to a new interactive map from Fair Health, an independent nonprofit focused on enhancing price transparency in healthcare.
To determine the average cost of both a complex and noncomplex COVID-19 hospitalization across states, Fair Health used its most recent FH Total Treatment Cost COVID-19 benchmarks, which were determined from its database of millions of billed medical claims across the U.S.
For the cost breakdown, Fair Health defined a complex COVID-19 hospitalization as one in which a patient is admitted to the hospital and required ventilation or admission to the intensive care unit. The total charge includes ICU costs, ventilator costs and costs for room and board of increased complexity. In comparison, a noncomplex COVID-19 hospitalization is one in which a patient is admitted to the hospital but does not require ventilation or admission to the ICU. This includes charges such as room and board, laboratory testing, imaging and IVs.
The state with the highest average charge for a complex COVID-19 hospitalization is Nevada, at $472,213. The lowest is in Maryland, where facilities charge an average of $131,965.
