What is dizziness & balance problems?

Severe dizziness or vertigo that makes standing or walking unsafe. The stay typically involves tests to find the cause and treatment to relieve symptoms and prevent falls.

Dizziness & Balance Problems is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 149, classified within the Nervous System 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.
