Compare hospitals → What is newborn with major problems?
A full-term baby born with a serious medical problem — such as breathing trouble, infection, or a complication of delivery — needing intensive monitoring and treatment after birth.
Newborn with Major Problems is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 793, classified within the Maternity 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.
