What is limb amputation?

Surgical removal of part of a limb because of severe bone, joint, or soft tissue disease. The stay includes the operation, wound care, pain management, and the start of rehabilitation planning.

Limb Amputation is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 475 (with 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.
