What is leg & arm bone surgery?

An operation on the bones of the lower leg, knee area, ankle, or upper arm, most often to repair a fracture. The stay includes surgery, pain control, and early work on movement.

Leg & Arm Bone Surgery is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 492 (with major complications), 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.
