The physician orders, based on his/her examination and treatment of the patient, are the key components in determining which services and procedures are charged to an individual patient. There are many components that comprise a hospital bill. For example, a short hospital inpatient stay could include surgical procedures, treatment in the emergency department, supplies, pharmaceuticals, room and board, numerous tests (i.e., x-rays, laboratory), and respiratory and physical therapy (all based on a physician's orders). Therefore, this document should not be used to accurately estimate the final patient cost of a given hospital stay or outpatient visit. It is provided for information only.
