Here are average costs per inpatient day in 2011, organized by hospital ownership type, in all 50 states plus the District of Columbia, according to the latest statistics from Kaiser State Health Facts.
Note: The data includes all operating and non-operating expenses for registered U.S. community hospitals, defined as public, nonfederal, short-term general and other special hospitals. Adjusted expenses per inpatient day include expenses for both inpatient and outpatient care; inpatient days are adjusted higher to reflect an estimate of the volume of outpatient services. These figures are only an estimate of expenses incurred by the hospital to provide a day of inpatient care and are not a substitute for either actual charges or reimbursement for care provided.
