Abstract: Systems and methods for providing medical information are provided in which a medical bill and line items summarized by the bill are received from a care provider. A revenue code in the bill and a subset of line items associated with it is identified. Respective line items are matched to corresponding generic description codes using a lookup table, thereby identifying generic codes for the line items. The generic codes are used to determine whether each line item is validly associated with the revenue code. A median charge for each line item is calculated based on historical charges by medical care providers in a relevant geographic region. A report is provided that provides, for each line item, the actual charge for the item from the bill, the median charge for the line item, and any flag indicating that the line item is potentially not validly associated with the corresponding revenue code.
