Compare hospitals → What is pathological fractures & bone cancer?
A broken bone caused by disease weakening the bone, often cancer, or cancer of the bones, muscles, or connective tissue. Care includes pain control, treatment of the underlying condition, and help with safe movement.
Pathological Fractures & Bone Cancer is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 542 (with major 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.
