Compare hospitals → What is skin & breast surgery?
Surgery on the skin, the tissue beneath it, or the breast, such as removing a growth or repairing damaged tissue. The stay covers the operation, wound care, and a short recovery period.
Skin & Breast Surgery is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 581 (without complications), classified within the Skin 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.
