Compare hospitals → What is major bowel surgery?
An operation on the small or large intestine, such as removing a diseased section of bowel. The stay includes the surgery and several days of recovery while the digestive system starts working again.
Major Bowel Surgery is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 329 (with major complications), classified within the Digestive 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.
