Compare hospitals → What is respiratory condition with ventilator support?
A breathing problem severe enough to need a mechanical ventilator for up to about four days. The stay typically involves intensive care, medications to keep the patient comfortable on the ventilator, and treatment of the underlying lung condition.
Respiratory Condition with Ventilator Support is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 208, 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.
