Diseases of the body's connective tissue, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, when a flare-up needs hospital care. The stay usually involves medicines to calm inflammation and monitoring of affected joints and organs.
Connective Tissue Disorders is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 547 (without 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.
