Compare hospitals → What is orthopedic aftercare?
A hospital stay for problems that arise after earlier bone, joint, or muscle treatment, such as trouble with healing or with surgical hardware. Care depends on the issue and may involve wound care, medicines, or adjustments to the earlier treatment.
Orthopedic Aftercare is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 560 (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.
