What is cervical spinal fusion?
Surgery that joins (fuses) bones in the neck portion of the spine to relieve pressure on nerves or stabilize the spine. The stay covers the operation, pain control, and early recovery, including help getting mobile.
Cervical Spinal Fusion is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 472 (with complications), classified within the Musculoskeletal diagnostic category. Hospitals publish gross charges per DRG under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule, but actual cost depends on insurance: insurers negotiate substantial discounts, Medicare and Medicaid pay fixed rates, and uninsured patients can often qualify for cash-pay discounts. Use the gross charge as a benchmark when comparing hospitals; a facility that lists a procedure at twice the price of another tends to charge higher rates across the board.
