Medicaid
Medicaid is run by each state, and it pays fixed rates to the providers that accept it, so the price doesn't change from one hospital to the next. Most people on Medicaid owe nothing or a small copay for covered care, but what's covered and what you owe depends on your state and plan. CostKits doesn't show a Medicaid price here because those rates are set by the state, not negotiated by each hospital. The question that matters is whether the provider accepts your Medicaid plan, so ask before you schedule.

Quick take
- Mount Carmel East is the lowest-cost option at $2,099 - $2,724 below the state median, just by choosing where you go.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $4,823, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
- Ask the hospital whether your procedure will be billed as outpatient or inpatient - the two are priced differently, so confirm with your insurer first if it is planned.
Ohio has one of the most concentrated hospital markets in the Midwest. Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals compete in Northeast Ohio (one of the few Ohio markets with genuine competition); OhioHealth and Nationwide Children's dominate Columbus; Kettering Health and Premier Health compete in Dayton. Prices across Ohio's urban markets tend to run near the Midwest median. Hysterectomy costs vary primarily by surgical approach (open, laparoscopic, or robotic) and inpatient vs. outpatient classification. Robotic-assisted procedures carry higher facility fees and may not offer better outcomes for routine cases. Most commercial plans cover medically necessary hysterectomy after the deductible; elective or fertility-related procedures may face different coverage rules. Anesthesia and pathology are billed separately from the facility and surgeon.

| Deductible not yet met | ~$4,823 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$965 |
