Hip Replacement Cost in Mississippi (2026): Average Prices & What You'll Pay

What does a hip replacement cost in Mississippi?

For a commercially insured patient, a hip replacement in Mississippi typically runs $5,196–$22,745 once facility and physician fees are combined. The median reported facility price across 33 hospitals is $8,854. The figures draw on CMS fee schedules and hospital price transparency data published under federal law.

Mississippi has among the highest uninsured rates in the country and one of the lowest Medicaid reimbursement rates, both of which push list prices up to offset uncompensated care. The market is anchored by UMMC (University of Mississippi Medical Center) in Jackson and by Regional One (Memphis area) for the northern tier. Most of the state is served by small community hospitals and critical access facilities.

Hip replacement is one of the highest-cost elective procedures in orthopedic surgery, with total episode costs (surgery, implant, anesthesia, facility, and 90-day follow-up) ranging from $20,000–$50,000+. The implant device alone accounts for 30–40% of the facility charge. Medicare Advantage plans increasingly carve out joint replacement to preferred facilities using bundled payment arrangements, which can significantly lower your out-of-pocket costs if you use a designated center of excellence.

Across 33 Mississippi hospitals that publish prices, a hip replacement runs from as little as $662 (Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto in Southaven) to $131,843 (Merit Health River Region in Vicksburg) — a 199.2× spread for the same procedure. A typical Mississippi facility lands around $8,854 — most sit in the $2,228–$16,205 band. Insurers negotiate this down to a median of $1,399, while self-pay patients are quoted $8,854 — about 6.3× higher, so asking for the cash or insurer-negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on your bill.

Why prices vary this much

Setting drives much of the gap in Mississippi: the median outpatient price is $8,443 versus $19,710 inpatient — about 2.3× more, so where a procedure is performed often matters more than which hospital you choose. Of the Mississippi facilities reporting prices, 10 fall in a low-cost tier (up to $2,228) while 10 sit in a high-cost tier ($17,465 and up) — a lower-priced option almost always exists within the same state.

The spread comes from how each hospital sets its chargemaster (the undiscounted list price), what cash discounts it applies, and what rates it negotiates with each insurer. Facility classification matters too — a hospital-owned outpatient center adds a facility fee that a freestanding clinic does not. Understanding these mechanics is the first step to paying less.

How insurance changes what you actually pay

Hospital list prices are only part of the picture. What you pay out of pocket depends on your deductible, your plan's out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility is in-network, and whether your plan classifies the visit as outpatient or inpatient. A lower gross charge doesn't guarantee a lower bill if the facility is out-of-network or adds facility fees your plan doesn't cover.
