Billing-Based Cost Estimation is a methodological approach within direct medical cost analysis that quantifies healthcare expenditures by systematically aggregating and interpreting itemized charges documented in formal billing records, distinguished from alternative estimation techniques by its reliance on actual transactional billing data rather than resource-based or time-driven approximations.
