Use this when a user asks what a medical service or hospital stay costs, or what was actually paid for it, for example an office visit, an MRI, a colonoscopy, physical therapy, a knee replacement or a pneumonia stay, in Singapore (hospital bills for medical conditions) (country SG) or the United States (what Medicare paid doctors and hospitals) (country US). Returns the official average amount the public health insurer allowed per service (doctors' services, in an office or a facility) or paid per hospital stay (by hospital-stay group), nationally or for one state where the source publishes it, with the number of services or discharges behind it, the share the insurer itself paid, the national average for comparison and the data year, plus the official source and licence. These are public-insurance rates (price_type official_statistic): what the insurer allowed or paid, NOT private-insurance negotiated prices or cash prices, which are usually higher, and not a quote. A published average, so the range fields are null. Facility figures are the doctor's fee only; the hospital's or surgery centre's fee is separate. How fresh: Singapore (hospital bills for medical conditions): annual benchmark file (data year 2023, file last updated 15 May 2026); every answer states its data year; the United States (what Medicare paid doctors and hospitals): annual: one calendar year at a time (the 2024 data year was released in 2026); every answer states its data year. Do not use for a quote or what a specific hospital or doctor charges, private-insurance or out-of-pocket costs, drug or prescription prices, dental or vision plans, or other countries.
