What is pacemaker implant?

A procedure to place a small device under the skin of the chest that keeps the heartbeat steady when the heart's own rhythm is too slow. Most patients recover quickly and go home within a day or two.

Pacemaker Implant is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 244 (without complications), classified within the Cardiovascular 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.
