Hip Replacement Cost (2026): $2,519–$7,295

Let's calculate yours

Your actual cost depends on your insurance type, facility choice, and deductible status. Prices reflect 2026 national averages.

Total hip replacement (THR) is a major orthopedic surgery that replaces the damaged hip joint with an artificial implant. It is one of the highest-cost elective surgeries in the U.S.

Hip Replacement Cost by State

Compare prices across all 50 states. Prices shown are the 25th–70th percentile range from hospital-reported data — the range where most patients' actual charges fall.

Why Hip Replacement Costs Vary

• Implant type: Standard cemented implants cost less; cementless, ceramic, or custom implants add $1,000–$5,000.
• Revision surgery: Revising a failed hip replacement costs 40–80% more than the original surgery.
• Length of stay: Most cases require 2–3 nights; complex cases longer. Each additional night adds $2,000–$4,000.
• Facility type: Ambulatory surgery centers (approved for hip replacement) can cost 30–50% less than hospital inpatient settings.

Bottom line: Where you get care matters more than almost any other factor. Two hospitals 10 miles apart can charge 3–5× different prices for the same procedure.

How to Use This Data

These prices come from hospital price transparency files that hospitals are required by law to publish. They represent the range of what hospitals declare as their charges — actual negotiated rates with insurers are typically 40–60% lower.

If you have insurance: Your out-of-pocket cost is determined by your deductible, coinsurance, and your insurer's negotiated rate with the specific facility. Call your insurer for a pre-service cost estimate before scheduling.

If you are uninsured: Call 2–3 facilities directly and ask for their self-pay or cash-pay rate. Most facilities offer 20–50% discounts off list prices for upfront payment.

If you received a bill: Upload it to CostKits to compare what you were charged against what other facilities in your state reported.
