San Antonio, TX Hysterectomy prices by facility

All prices below come from hospital chargemasters — the official price lists each hospital must publish under federal law. Gross charge is the undiscounted list price; cash price is the self-pay rate; negotiated range covers the spread across insurance contracts.

How we calculate "Your Price" — We prioritize the most actionable price in this order:
  1. Cash price — the self-pay rate you can actually negotiate and pay
  2. Negotiated rate — if reported by the hospital across insurance contracts
  3. Gross charge — fallback only; this is the inflated list price few people pay

This reflects the real prices patients encounter — not inflated chargemaster rates.

#1 Resolute Health Hospital New Braunfels, TX $681 -$2,429 $681–$1,564

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.
Important: Many procedures are done at ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) that are often 30–60% cheaper than hospital outpatient departments with the same clinical quality. Most ASCs are not in this hospital dataset — meaning your cheapest option may not even appear here. Ask your doctor if the procedure can be done at a freestanding ASC.

Most expensive hysterectomy providers in San Antonio, TX

These facilities report the highest prices for this procedure. Academic medical centers and specialty hospitals often top this list — their gross charges rarely reflect what anyone actually pays, but understanding the spread helps you negotiate.

Foundation Surgical Hospital of San Antonio San Antonio, TX $7,063 +$3,953

Why prices vary this much

A small number of hospitals (2) report very high prices above $4,447, which drives much of the overall price range. Excluding these, most facilities cluster in a significantly tighter band.

Setting drives much of the gap in San Antonio, TX: the median outpatient price is $3,110 versus $4,338 inpatient — about 1.4× more, so where a procedure is performed often matters more than which hospital you choose. Of the San Antonio, TX facilities reporting prices, 3 fall in a low-cost tier (up to $2,472) while 4 sit in a high-cost tier ($3,262 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.

Where You Get a Hysterectomy Matters

Hospital outpatient departments typically charge 2–4× more than ASCs or independent centers for the same procedure — same outcome, very different bill.

Hospital Outpatient Department

Hospital Outpatient Department typically carries a higher price for a hysterectomy. Facility fee billed separately from professional fee. Provider-based billing adds facility overhead. You can shop here — call ahead and ask for a self-pay or cash quote.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital Inpatient typically carries the highest price for a hysterectomy. DRG-based billing bundles most services. Professional fees billed separately. Length of stay drives cost.

What's Actually on Your Hysterectomy Bill

A hysterectomy involves multiple providers — each bills separately. Understanding each line item helps you verify your Explanation of Benefits and catch billing errors.

Hospital Outpatient

  • Facility Fee — For laparoscopic and vaginal approaches.
  • Ob Gyn Surgeon Professional Fee
  • Anesthesia

Hospital Inpatient

  • Drg Facility Stay — DRGs 742/743 for non-malignancy.
  • Ob Gyn Surgeon Professional Fee
  • Anesthesia

Hysterectomy Cost by Type

Which type your doctor orders changes the billing code — and what you pay. Here's how the common types differ.

Laparoscopic Total Hysterectomy

A recognized variation that can change the billing code and what you owe. Most common modern approach. Same-day or 1-night stay.

Vaginal Hysterectomy

A recognized variation that can change the billing code and what you owe.

Open (Abdominal) Hysterectomy

A recognized variation that can change the billing code and what you owe. Inpatient-only (OPPS SI=C). 2–3 day hospital stay. Higher cost.

This Procedure Is Shoppable — Choosing the Right Facility Can Save Thousands

Hysterectomy is elective and schedulable. You have time to compare facilities — and hospital outpatient prices often run 2–4× higher than Hospital OP for identical clinical outcomes.

How to shop: Ask your doctor for the CPT code, then call 2–3 facilities and request an out-of-pocket cost estimate. Confirm your insurance is accepted. If uninsured, ask for the cash-pay rate — it's usually 20–50% below the list price.

Prior Authorization Is Usually Required

Most commercial and Medicare Advantage plans require pre-approval for hysterectomy before scheduling. If your doctor submits the order without prior authorization — or if the authorization lapses — your insurer can deny the entire claim, leaving you responsible for the full cost.

Action step: Call the member services number on your insurance card before scheduling. Ask: "Does this procedure require prior authorization?" Get the authorization number in writing and confirm it's attached to the claim before your appointment.

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.
