Compare hospitals → What is pulmonary embolism?
A blood clot that has traveled to the lungs, causing chest pain and shortness of breath. The hospital stay involves blood-thinning medicines, oxygen if needed, and monitoring while the clot stabilizes.
Pulmonary Embolism is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 176 (without 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.
