Hysterectomy Cost in Virginia (2026): Average Prices & What You'll Pay

What does a hysterectomy cost in Virginia?

For a commercially insured patient, a hysterectomy in Virginia typically runs $5,609–$13,118 once facility and physician fees are combined. The median reported facility price across 39 hospitals is $4,978. The figures draw on CMS fee schedules and hospital price transparency data published under federal law.

Inova Health System dominates Northern Virginia with pricing that reflects DC-metro labor costs — among the highest in the Mid-Atlantic. Sentara Healthcare and Carilion Clinic cover the Tidewater and Southwest Virginia markets respectively. Northern Virginia facilities typically price 20–30% above the state average due to proximity to the DC labor market.

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.

Virginia prices for a hysterectomy span 170.4× across 39 reporting hospitals, from $587 (Chesapeake General Hospital in North) up to $100,014 (Sovah Health - Danville) for identical care. Half of Virginia facilities price it at or below $4,978, with most clustered between $3,420 and $8,802. Insurers negotiate this down to a median of $3,988, while self-pay patients are quoted $4,978. Location within the state matters too: North has the lowest metro median ($1,294) while Haymarket runs highest ($9,158) — a 7.1× difference inside Virginia alone.

Most expensive hysterectomy providers in Virginia

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.

Why prices vary this much

A small number of hospitals (3) report very high prices above $16,875, 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 Virginia: the median outpatient price is $4,978 versus $3,730 inpatient, so where a procedure is performed often matters more than which hospital you choose. Of the Virginia facilities reporting prices, 12 fall in a low-cost tier (up to $3,420) while 16 sit in a high-cost tier ($8,802 and up) — a lower-priced option almost always exists within the same state.

Among the cities with the most reporting hospitals, Falls Church has a median reported price of $7,047 across 4 facilities, while facilities in North tend to report lower prices (median: $1,294). City-level variation within a state often reflects local market structure, not procedure complexity.

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.

Frequently asked questions: hysterectomy costs in Virginia

How much does a hysterectomy cost in Virginia?

Across 39 Virginia hospitals that publish prices, a hysterectomy ranges from $587 to $100,014, with a median of $4,978. Most facilities fall between $3,420 and $8,802. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.

Where is the cheapest place to get a hysterectomy in Virginia?

Based on declared prices, the lowest-cost facility in our Virginia data is Centra Specialty Hospital at about $786. By metro, North has the lowest median ($1,294). Freestanding ambulatory surgery and imaging centers are often cheaper still and may not appear in hospital price data — ask your doctor whether one is an option.

Why is a hysterectomy so much cheaper at some Virginia hospitals?

Prices vary up to 170.4× because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Virginia, the median cash (self-pay) price is $4,978 versus a median negotiated rate of $3,988 — about 1.2× higher. Asking for the cash price or your insurer's negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on what you pay.

How much will I actually pay out of pocket for a hysterectomy in Virginia?

Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximum, and whether the facility is in-network — not just the sticker price. If you have not met your deductible, you will typically pay the negotiated rate in full until you do. Use the CostKits cost forecaster to estimate your specific out-of-pocket amount before you go.
