Compare hospitals → What is sepsis?
Hospitalization for septicemia or severe sepsis (no extended ventilator) with major complications — a life-threatening immune response to infection.
Sepsis is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 871 (with major complications), classified within the Infection & Sepsis 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.
