Stanly Regional Medical Center
Albemarle, NC · Nonprofit
Stanly Regional Medical Center is a 3-star nonprofit hospital in Albemarle, NC. It publishes prices for 3 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $34 to $581. 71.0% of patients rated this hospital 9 or 10 out of 10.
If you're uninsured or paying out of pocket, Stanly Regional's cash prices average around $644 per procedure—roughly what you'd expect at a small regional hospital. The gap between what they bill insurance companies (their gross charges average about 2.3 times the cash price) is typical for the market, so you're not looking at an unusually aggressive pricing strategy here. What matters more for you is whether this hospital is convenient to reach and whether your specific procedure is available; at 97 beds, Stanly Regional handles common surgeries and treatments but may refer complex cases elsewhere.
Before you schedule, call the billing department and ask for the cash price of your exact procedure—the average doesn't tell you what *your* surgery will cost. If cost is a real barrier, ask whether you qualify for their charity care program; they've set aside over $4 million for uninsured and low-income patients, though you'll need to apply.

What this price typically doesn't include
Procedure codes generally cover the procedure itself. Other services that often appear on the same bill are listed under separate codes — for example:
- Anesthesia (CPT 00xxx)
- Pathology, if a sample is taken (CPT 88xxx)
- Drugs administered during the visit (J-codes)
- Facility vs. professional split — one charge from the hospital, another from the doctor
- Room and board, if the procedure is inpatient
Asking what other codes might appear on the bill is a useful follow-up so the total is not a surprise. Once you receive the bill, asking for an itemized statement listing each service code separately makes it easier to match against the disclosed prices above.
