Important: These are cost estimates only — not a quote and not medical advice.

The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 27130Total hip arthroplasty). They represent what a patient might pay without insurance.

Your actual cost depends on: your specific insurance plan, your remaining deductible, your coinsurance percentage, whether you have met your out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility and provider are both in-network, and any separate anesthesia or implant fees billed independently.

This page does not constitute medical advice. Whether you need this procedure, and which approach is right for you, is a decision to make with a licensed healthcare provider.

Where this data comes from & what CPT 27130 covers

Data source: Cost figures are derived from UnitedHealthcare Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files for CPT code 27130 (Total hip arthroplasty), as mandated by the CMS Price Transparency Rule.

What CPT 27130 covers: the provider's professional fee for hip replacement. It does not include facility/hospital fees, anesthesia, pre-operative imaging, post-operative care, or any add-on codes billed separately.

How to read this data

Negotiated Rate

The discounted price an insurer has agreed to pay a specific provider. Most insured patients' bills are calculated from this number, not the higher list price hospitals publish separately.

P5, Median, P95

P5 is the rate at the 5th percentile (low end), Median is the middle value, and P95 is the 95th percentile (high end). This range shows how much the same visit can vary between providers.

What this does not tell you

These rates do not tell you what you personally will pay out of pocket. That depends on your specific plan, how much of your deductible you have already met, your coinsurance rate, and whether the provider is in your network. Call your insurer's member line to get your exact estimate.

Why Hip Replacement Surgery Visit Costs Vary Across Mississippi

Mississippi's Hip Replacement Surgery costs run approximately 14% below national averages, reflecting the state's lower cost of living and reduced physician overhead expenses. The Mississippi Delta region and rural counties often see the most significant savings, though specialist availability becomes more limited outside metropolitan areas.

Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability

Jackson and the Gulf Coast region concentrate most of Mississippi's Hip Replacement Surgery specialists, while Delta counties and northeastern Mississippi face significant orthopedic shortages. Rural patients often travel to Jackson or Memphis for complex hip procedures, though this geographic challenge helps keep local costs competitive.

Facility Type and Overhead Costs

University of Mississippi Medical Center dominates academic orthopedics while regional health systems like Baptist Health Systems and Forrest Health operate throughout the state with varying cost structures. Independent orthopedic surgery centers typically offer lower Hip Replacement Surgery costs than hospital-based facilities due to reduced overhead expenses.

Insurance Market Competition in Mississippi

Limited insurer competition between BCBS Mississippi, UHC, and Magnolia Health reduces negotiating pressure on Hip Replacement Surgery rates compared to more competitive state markets. This concentrated market structure can result in higher premiums but more predictable specialist costs for covered procedures.

Physician Supply and Demand in Mississippi

With over 1,200 providers handling Hip Replacement Surgery procedures statewide, Mississippi maintains adequate specialist coverage in urban areas but faces rural shortages that drive patients toward metropolitan centers. This supply-demand imbalance keeps urban Hip Replacement Surgery costs competitive while creating access challenges for rural residents.

Frequently Asked Questions — Hip Replacement Surgery Costs in Mississippi

What is the average cost of a Hip Replacement Surgery visit in Mississippi without insurance?

Based on actual negotiated rates, Hip Replacement Surgery procedures in Mississippi typically cost between $1,040 and $3,084, with a median cost of $1,333. These rates reflect what insurers actually pay providers, though uninsured patients may face different pricing structures. Mississippi's costs run approximately 14% below national averages, making the state relatively affordable for orthopedic procedures.

Does Mississippi Medicaid cover Hip Replacement Surgery visits?

Mississippi Medicaid covers medically necessary Hip Replacement Surgery for eligible recipients, though the state chose not to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. This creates a coverage gap for low-income adults who earn too much for traditional Medicaid but cannot afford marketplace insurance. Covered patients typically face minimal out-of-pocket costs, while prior authorization is usually required for elective procedures.

How do I find an affordable Hip Replacement Surgery near me in Mississippi?

Compare costs between hospital-owned orthopedic clinics and independent surgical centers, as independent facilities often charge less due to lower overhead. Ask about cash-pay discounts if you're uninsured, and consider community health centers in Jackson or other metropolitan areas. Rural surgical centers may offer competitive pricing, though you should factor in travel costs and post-operative care accessibility.

What is the difference in cost between an initial consultation and a follow-up visit?

Initial Hip Replacement Surgery consultations typically cost more than follow-up visits due to comprehensive evaluations, imaging review, and treatment planning. While specific consultation rates weren't available in our data, the surgical procedure itself shows significant cost variation from $1,040 to $3,084 depending on complexity and facility type. Follow-up visits for post-operative care generally cost substantially less than the initial surgical consultation.

Can I use an HSA or FSA to pay for a Hip Replacement Surgery visit in Mississippi?

Yes, Hip Replacement Surgery procedures qualify as eligible medical expenses for both Health Savings Accounts and Flexible Spending Accounts. You can use these pre-tax dollars for surgeon fees, facility costs, anesthesia, and related medical expenses. Keep all receipts and documentation, as HSA funds can be used indefinitely while FSA funds typically must be used within the plan year.

How does telemedicine affect the cost of seeing a Hip Replacement Surgery in Mississippi?

While Hip Replacement Surgery ultimately requires in-person surgical intervention, telemedicine consultations for initial evaluations or post-operative follow-ups typically cost 20-40% less than office visits. Mississippi expanded telehealth coverage during the pandemic, and many orthopedic practices now offer virtual consultations for non-urgent concerns. However, physical examinations and imaging are still necessary for surgical planning and cannot be replaced by telehealth services.
