Compare hospitals → What is pulmonary embolism?
A blood clot that has traveled to the lungs, straining the heart and making it hard to breathe. Care involves blood-thinning medicines, oxygen, and close monitoring of the heart and lungs, sometimes in an intensive care unit.
Pulmonary Embolism is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 175 (with major complications), classified within the Respiratory 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.
