What is multiple sclerosis & ataxia?

A hospital stay for multiple sclerosis or cerebellar ataxia, conditions that affect movement, balance, and coordination, without other complicating conditions. Care typically involves medicines such as steroids for a flare-up, testing, and evaluation for therapy.

Multiple Sclerosis & Ataxia is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 060 (without complications), classified within the Nervous System 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.
