Kidney & Urinary Tract Cancer Cost in Pennsylvania — Compare All Hospitals
Hospital care for cancer of the kidney, bladder, or urinary tract when the stay is for medical treatment rather than major surgery. Care typically involves managing symptoms such as bleeding, pain, or blockage, along with imaging and treatment planning.
Data notes for Pennsylvania
- The lowest published charge ($3,150 at Wayne Memorial Hospital (Acute Care)) is unusually low for an inpatient stay. This may reflect a data-quality issue in the hospital's MRF rather than an actual price — verify directly with the hospital before relying on it.

17 Pennsylvania hospitals publish gross charges for kidney & urinary tract cancer (DRG 687). Prices range from $3,150 to $83,354 — roughly $80,204 apart. The cheapest is Wayne Memorial Hospital (Acute Care) in Honesdale; the most expensive is Temple University Hospital - Main Campus in Philadelphia. The state average sits at $50,604.
These numbers are list prices — what the hospital bills before any insurance adjustment. 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 kidney & urinary tract cancer at twice the price of another typically negotiates higher rates with insurers too, and quotes more for uninsured patients.
You usually don't choose a hospital during an urgent kidney & urinary tract cancer admission. This page is for the planning side: patients with chronic conditions weighing their options, caregivers picking ahead of time, or employers comparing in-network facilities. Click any hospital name for its full quality profile — CMS overall star rating, mortality and readmission rates, patient-experience scores. When two nearby hospitals look similar on quality, the one with lower published charges is the safer default for routine medical admissions.
Pricing comes from each hospital's Machine-Readable File (MRF), published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. Pennsylvania hospitals missing from the list either don't perform kidney & urinary tract cancer in volume, haven't published a usable price for DRG 687 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.
