DRG 388 · Digestive

GI Obstruction Cost in Texas — Compare All Hospitals

A blockage in the intestines that keeps food and fluid from passing through, causing pain, bloating, and vomiting. Treatment usually involves resting the bowel, a tube to relieve pressure, and IV fluids, with surgery if the blockage doesn't clear.

27 Texas hospitals publish gross charges for gi obstruction (DRG 388). Prices range from $9,756 to $56,509 — roughly $46,752 apart. The cheapest is Doctors Hosptal at Renaissance in Edinburg; the most expensive is UT Health Quitman in Quitman. The state average sits at $45,748.

These numbers are list prices — what the hospital bills before any insurance adjustment. Insurance plans negotiate substantial discounts, Medicare and Medicaid pay fixed federal rates, and uninsured patients can usually qualify for a cash-pay discount. But the gross charge still works as a useful benchmark: a hospital that lists gi obstruction at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.

You usually don't choose a hospital during an urgent gi obstruction admission. This page is for the planning side: patients with chronic conditions weighing their options, caregivers picking ahead of time, or employers comparing in-network facilities. Click any hospital name for its full quality profile — CMS overall star rating, mortality and readmission rates, patient-experience scores. When two nearby hospitals look similar on quality, the one with lower published charges is the safer default for routine medical admissions.

Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Texas hospitals missing from the list either don't perform gi obstruction in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 388 in their most recent MRF, or fell below our data-quality thresholds (we filter out clearly erroneous entries like $0 charges). The list refreshes as hospitals update their files.
