Eventually the published price will be close to the amount you are being charged. I would expect health care providers to stick with their promise to post the highest possible cost but as people being to use these prices to shop around (both these numbers are exorbitant, but this one is less so, etc.), I am confident they will abandon this gambit.
IMHO, it's kind of nuts they are even starting out with this argument.
