Hip Replacement Cost in Rhode Island (2026): Average Prices & What You'll Pay
What does a hip replacement cost in Rhode Island?
A typical hip replacement in Rhode Island costs $6,872–$12,106 for a commercially insured patient, including facility and physician fees. The median reported facility price across 6 hospitals is $4,436. This estimate is based on CMS fee schedules and hospital price transparency data published under federal law.
Lifespan (Rhode Island Hospital, Miriam Hospital) and Care New England (Women & Infants, Kent Hospital) dominate a market that is effectively a single metro area - Providence and its immediate suburbs. Rhode Island approved a merger between the two systems, which when complete will create a near-monopoly in the state's hospital market. Prices here already trend above the Northeast average. 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.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $4,436 versus $4,436 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. Setting drives most of the spread here: an ambulatory surgical center (ASC) is usually meaningfully cheaper than a hospital operating room for the same procedure, when your case qualifies.
On top of the facility price, your actual bill depends on your deductible, your out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved - not just the facility - is in-network.
| Your situation | Estimated out-of-pocket |
|---|---|
| Deductible not yet met | ~$8,524 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$1,705 |
| Out-of-network provider | $18,753+ |

In Rhode Island, the median cash (self-pay) price is $4,436 versus a median negotiated rate of $2,930 - about 1.5× higher. Asking for the cash price or your insurer's negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on what you pay.

What matters before you schedule
What's on your bill
A hip replacement involves multiple providers who bill separately - typically Drg Facility Stay, Orthopedic Surgeon Professional Fee, Anesthesia. Check each line item against your Explanation of Benefits to catch billing errors.
Cost by type
Which type your doctor orders for this hip replacement changes the billing code, and what you pay. For example: A recognized variation that can change the billing code and what you owe.
This is shoppable
Hip Replacement is elective and schedulable, so you have time to compare facilities before booking - hospital outpatient prices often run 2-4x higher than alternative settings for the identical clinical outcome.
What to ask before you book
Get the CPT code from your doctor, confirm every provider involved (not just the facility) is in-network, ask for the cash-pay rate if you're uninsured or haven't met your deductible, and request a written estimate for hip replacement before you schedule.
CostKits compiles hospital price transparency data to help families make informed decisions. Track and manage your healthcare costs (free account).
