Before you book: three questions that change the price
- Is this the self-pay price, and does it include the doctor, anesthesia and any lab or pathology? Those are often billed separately.
- Can you give me the price in writing, with the billing codes it covers?
- What happens to the price if something extra is needed during the procedure?

Quick take
- Ascension SE Wisconsin Hospital, Inc. is the lowest-cost option at $2,593 - $2,200 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 $4,793, 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.
Advocate Aurora Health (formed in the Illinois-Wisconsin merger) and Ascension Wisconsin are the dominant systems in the Milwaukee market, while UW Health anchors the Madison market. Wisconsin's hospital market is moderately competitive in major metros but increasingly concentrated in rural areas. Prices tend to run near or slightly below 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.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
A small number of hospitals (1) report prices above $8,302, including Children's Hospital of Wisconsin at $10,196, which drives most of the overall spread - excluding them, most facilities cluster in a much tighter band. Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $4,793 versus $2,302 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.
None of the prices above are what you'll necessarily owe: your deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and each provider's network status all still apply.
| Your situation | Estimated out-of-pocket |
|---|---|
| Deductible not yet met | ~$4,793 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$959 |
| Out-of-network provider | $10,545+ |
