What is hip & knee replacement?

Replacement of a hip, knee, or ankle joint in patients who also have serious health problems, or joint replacement performed after a fracture. The stay includes the operation, close medical monitoring, and early physical therapy.

Hip & Knee Replacement is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 469 (with major complications or total ankle replacement), 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.
