Compare hospitals → What is kidney & ureter surgery?
An operation on the kidney or ureter for a non-cancerous problem, such as removing large stones or relieving a blockage. The stay covers the surgery and monitoring of kidney function during recovery.
Kidney & Ureter Surgery is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 660 (with complications), classified within the Kidney & Urinary 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.
