Louisiana hospitals price hip replacement for fracture (Medicare DRG 522) anywhere from $13,698 to $182,617 — a $168,919 gap between the cheapest and most expensive option. The cheapest is Opelousas General Health System in Opelousas; the most expensive is North Oaks Medical Center in Hammond. The state average sits at $140,425.

Gross charges are the hospital's list price for the facility part of your stay — the room, operating-room time, nursing, and equipment. 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 hip replacement for fracture at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.

If you're scheduling hip replacement for fracture in Louisiana, sort the list below by price, then click each hospital name to see its quality profile — CMS overall star rating, surgical-safety measures, readmission rates, patient-experience scores. The cheapest hospital isn't always the right call. Teaching hospitals often charge more because they take complex cases, and a higher-rated community hospital may deliver equivalent outcomes for a straightforward case at a lower price. Use the price column to narrow the field; use the quality data to make the final call.

Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Louisiana hospitals missing from the list either don't perform hip replacement for fracture in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 522 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.
