Executive summary
Oregon Hospital Payment Report:
Outpatient Surgeries
The Oregon Hospital Payment Report is an annual report that contains median payment information from
commercial insurers to hospitals for common inpatient and outpatient procedures. This report is mandated
by Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 442.466. This sub-report of the Oregon Hospital Payment Report and
contains payment information for outpatient surgery procedures only. Outpatient surgery — also known as
ambulatory surgery, same-day surgery or day surgery — is surgery that does not require an overnight
hospital stay. Payment information for inpatient procedures, medical imaging, procedures relating to
pregnancy and radiation and chemotherapy procedures can be found in their own sub-report releases.
Newly reported outpatient surgeries for 2015 are big toe surgeries, carpal tunnel, cystoscope lithotripsy,
heart electrophysiology studies, hysteroscopy, nerve block, shoulder arthroscopy, skin lesion removal,
thyroidectomy and tympanostomy.
Highlights of the outpatient surgery sub-report are:
• Most procedures vary substantially in paid amounts, both within and among hospitals.
• The outpatient surgical procedure with the highest paid amount is heart electrophysiology studies at
$36,900.
• The outpatient surgery with the largest growth in paid amount is shoulder arthroscopy, increasing nearly $1,700 from 2014.
• The outpatient surgery with the largest percent growth in paid amount is skin lesion removal, increasing by 21% from 2014.
• For all reported outpatient surgeries, the median paid amount increased $286 from 2014 to 2015. The range of paid amount change was from -$157 to +$1,697.
• The median percent increase of paid amount for all reported outpatient surgeries is 6% from 2014 to 2015.

How to interpret this report
This report presents information on the amount paid for common outpatient surgery procedures at hospitals in
Oregon. The data on these paid amounts come from submissions made to the All Payer All Claims database
(APAC) from commercial reporting entities. The range of typical paid amounts for each procedure is included at
the statewide and hospital levels, and a median amount paid is also displayed. The median is the middle value in
the range of typical paid amount.

2015 median paid amount
Statewide median
Range of paid amounts
The graphs included in this report contain four main points of information: the hospital name, the 2014
and 2015 median paid amounts, and the range of paid amounts. The hospital name is the name of the
hospital facility that performed the procedure. Only procedures that were performed at one of Oregon's
60 acute care hospitals are included in this report. The 2015 median paid amount is reported next to the
number of procedures in the label, and is also represented on the graph as the large dot. The statewide
median paid amount is provided at the top of every graph. The median represents the point that divides
the paid amounts in two parts, half above and half below the median amount. This is also known the
50th percentile. The range of paid amounts is represented in the charts as the small grey dots and the
grey line. This range excludes outliers in the data and is also known as the interquartile range. It is the
range between the lower 25th percentile and the upper 75th percentile. By removing the lower 25% of
the data and the upper 25% of the data, we remove outliers that can skew the median values. This
range represents the middle 50% of all paid amounts. The 2014 median paid amount is shown for
reference as the dark diamond. Hospitals that do not have a 2014 median paid amount mean that
procedures in that year did not qualify for reporting based on established methodology.
The median amount (large dot in the charts) is not necessarily the center point of the interquartile range
(grey line and dots). This is because paid amounts are not evenly distributed across the range. It is
common to see paid amounts clustered around certain dollar amounts resulting in the median being
pulled off center. The variance in the paid amounts within a hospital come from the different co-payment
and deductible amounts paid by patients, as well as different levels of severity in the patient's
condition. The differences in paid amount between hospitals include the above reasons, as well as each
hospital's negotiated payment rate with commercial insurance companies.

Abdominal drainage
Percutaneous abdominal drainage is the placement of a small plastic tube to be used as a drain in the abdominal
cavity. This is most commonly used to treat abscesses or fluid buildup in the abdomen as a result of disease or
infection. Percutaneous abdominal drains may also be used to treat blockages in the urinary system.

An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix, a small organ located on the lower portion of the small
intestine on a person’s right side. This is most commonly a laparoscopic surgery. A laparoscopic surgery is a
method of surgery that uses instruments inserted through small incisions. These types of surgeries are considered
minimally invasive, because they do not require a large open incision. This results in less overall damage to the
body, decreased healing times, reduced pain and a lower risk of infection.

Arthrocentesis is the procedure to drain fluid from a joint capsule using a needle and syringe. It is also called joint
aspiration. Arthrocentesis is used in the diagnosis of gout, arthritis and infections of the synovial fluid that
lubricates joints in the body.

Arthrography
Arthrography is a method of imaging the inside of a joint. A dye is injected into a joint, highlighting areas of soft
tissue and fluid. This injection is usually performed with a local anesthetic and with additional imaging to guide
the needle placement. It is most commonly performed on the shoulder to diagnose fine damage to the rotator cuff
muscles, but is also done on the hip, knee, ankle and elbow. After the injection, x-ray, MRI or CT images are
collected. Arthrography is separated from other imaging because the injection procedure is performed in the
operating room.

Carpal tunnel surgery is a procedure to correct carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when
nerves that travel through the wrist become compressed, resulting in pain, numbness and tingling in the hand and
fingers. Surgery is performed to release ligaments in the wrist that are placing pressure on the nerves that pass
through the wrist.

when the lens in the eye becomes cloudy, a state known as cataract. A highly specialized machine is used to
extract the damaged lens through a very small incision cut into the eye, and replace it with an artificial one.

Central venous catheter insertion
A central venous catheter, also known as a "central line," is a procedure to place a catheter — or thin hollow tube
— into a large vein in the body for use in long term therapy such as chemotherapy or dialysis. This is typically done in the chest, neck or upper thigh. In the outpatient setting, central lines are placed in anticipation of a long-term treatment plan.

Cystoscopy lithotripsy
Cystoscopy Lithotripsy is a procedure to remove stones from the urinary tract. These stones can become lodged in
the bladder, kidney, or in the connecting ducts. A doctor inserts a specialized scope called a cystoscope into the
urinary tract to locate the stone, which is then typically destroyed with a laser.

Heart catheterization
Heart catheterization is the use of thin hollow tubes, or catheters, to examine the inside of the heart and blood
vessels around the heart. These catheters may also be used to inject dye for use in imaging, or to collect samples
of heart muscle. The heart catheter is inserted in the large veins in the leg, arm or neck and threaded through the
blood vessels toward the heart. Doctors observe the advancement of the catheter using a special x-ray camera
called a fluoroscope.

Heart electrophysiology testing
Heart electrophysiology testing is a special type of heart catheterization procedure. Doctors use catheters to place
electrodes inside the heart in order to alter the heartbeat and monitor the responses. The heart is intentionally
sped up in order to bring about an irregular heartbeat, which will then be treated with a variety of drugs. Doctors
aim to establish in each patient which drugs treat the irregular heartbeat the best. They may also choose to use an
additional procedure called ablation, a means of scarring heart tissue to restore normal rhythm.

A nerve block is a procedure to inject a drug into a certain nerve or group of nerves to treat pain. The drug acts to
desensitize the nerve and "turn off" pain signals temporarily. Because such injections are often quite deep
