Before you book: three questions that change the price

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

Quick take

  • Monadnock Community Hospital is the lowest-cost option at $7,121 - $3,214 below the median posted price ($10,335), just by choosing where you go.
  • Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $10,335, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
  • Doctor offices and independent clinics may charge differently from hospitals for the same service and may not appear in this hospital-only dataset. Ask your doctor whether another site is an option.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (3) report prices above $19,304, including MaineHealth at $35,444, 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 $10,335 versus $21,853 inpatient (about 2.1× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. Setting drives much of the spread here: whether the hospital bills the stay as outpatient or inpatient changes the facility fee, which is why two similar hospitals can bill very differently for the same procedure.

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 ~$10,335
Deductible met - 20% coinsurance ~$2,067
Out-of-network provider $22,737+

Frequently asked questions: pacemaker surgery costs in New Hampshire

How much does a pacemaker surgery cost in New Hampshire?

The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $10,335, with most facilities between $5,349 and $10,856 (based on 17 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Posted cash prices at the middle 80% of New Hampshire hospitals run $6,412–$24,805; outlier facilities above and below that range are left out. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.

Where is the cheapest place to get a pacemaker surgery in New Hampshire?

Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our New Hampshire data is Monadnock Community Hospital in Peterborough at about $7,121. By metro, Portsmouth has the lowest median ($8,748).

Why is a pacemaker surgery so much cheaper at some New Hampshire hospitals?

Typical prices vary about 2× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In New Hampshire, the median cash (self-pay) price is $10,335 versus a median negotiated rate of $28,715 - cash is the lower number at many hospitals. Asking for the cash price as well as 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 pacemaker surgery in New Hampshire?

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.
