What is soft tissue surgery?

Surgery on muscles, tendons, or other soft tissue, such as removing a growth or repairing damaged tissue, in patients who also have major complicating conditions. The stay includes the operation, wound care, and recovery.

Soft Tissue Surgery is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 500 (with major complications), classified within the Musculoskeletal 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.
