What is leg or foot amputation?
Surgery to remove part of a leg or foot because poor blood flow, often from severe artery disease or diabetes, has caused tissue to die. The stay covers the operation, wound care, pain control, and planning for rehabilitation.
Leg or Foot Amputation is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 239 (with major complications), classified within the Cardiovascular 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.
