Compare hospitals → What is healthy newborn?
A healthy baby's routine hospital stay after birth, including newborn exams, screening tests, and feeding support before going home.
Healthy Newborn is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 795, classified within the Maternity 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.
