How to choose a lower-cost facility
- Choose independent outpatient centers when possible — freestanding ASCs (ambulatory surgical centers) consistently charge less than hospital outpatient departments for identical procedures.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met — self-pay rates are often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied, especially at facilities that have a high cash-price discount.
- Avoid hospital outpatient departments for routine cases — hospital-owned locations add a facility fee that freestanding centers don't charge, often adding $500–$1,500 to the same procedure.

Why prices vary this much
A small number of hospitals (1) report very high prices above $2,148, which drives much of the overall price range. Excluding these, most facilities cluster in a significantly tighter band.
Of the Memphis, TN facilities reporting prices, 2 fall in a low-cost tier (up to $2,030) while 2 sit in a high-cost tier ($2,077 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.

Who performs this: Hysterectomy is typically performed by a Obstetrics & Gynecology. The specialist's professional fee is billed separately from the facility charge — you will likely receive separate bills from each.
