New Hampshire Price Point
The New Hampshire Hospital Association has created the Price Point website to provide information on charges and services at the state's hospitals. For each inpatient service at a selected hospital, users can see the number of patients served, average length of stay, and average and median charges for that hospital. They also can see how that data compares to similarly sized hospitals and all hospitals in the state, among other features. NHPricePoint is just one of the many ways that New Hampshire hospitals are demonstrating their commitment to providing information that can help consumers with health care decisions, said NHHA President Mike Hill. Pricing is a very complex issue, but we've done our best to make this Web site as meaningful to the average consumer as possible.
