Compare hospitals → What is surgical & wound infections?
An infection that develops at a surgical site or wound after an operation or injury. Hospital care typically involves IV antibiotics and wound cleaning or drainage.
Surgical & Wound Infections is billed under Medicare's MS-DRG 863 (without 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.
