Compare hospitals → What is heart failure?
The heart isn't pumping as strongly as it should, causing fluid buildup and shortness of breath. Treatment usually involves IV medicines to remove extra fluid and adjustments to heart medications.
Heart Failure is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 293 (without complications), classified within the Cardiovascular 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.
