Novant Health Rowan Medical Center is a 2-star nonprofit hospital in Salisbury, NC, part of the Novant Health health system. It publishes prices for 49 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $16 to $5,262. 63.0% of patients rated this hospital 9 or 10 out of 10.

You're looking at Novant Health Rowan Medical Center in Salisbury, and there's one thing worth knowing upfront: your out-of-pocket cost will depend heavily on which insurance you carry. If you have Anthem, you're likely paying less than half what someone with Aetna or Humana pays for the same procedure here—that's a real swing. The hospital's gross charges run about double their cash price, which is standard, but your actual bill depends on your plan's negotiated rate. Before you commit to this facility, call their billing department and ask what they've negotiated with your specific insurance company for your procedure.

The second thing: this hospital reported over $13 million in charity care last year, though it only represents about 1.25 percent of their overall revenue. If you're uninsured or significantly underinsured, ask about financial assistance when you call—don't assume you don't qualify.
