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 27130 — Total 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 New Jersey
New Jersey's Hip Replacement Surgery costs run approximately 17% above national averages, driven by the state's high cost of living and proximity to major metropolitan areas. The density of academic medical centers and teaching hospitals throughout the state creates a premium pricing environment, particularly in northern counties near New York City.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
New Jersey's compact geography means most residents have access to multiple Hip Replacement Surgery providers within reasonable driving distance. However, northern counties like Bergen and Essex command higher rates due to proximity to Manhattan and higher commercial real estate costs. Southern and central New Jersey typically offer more affordable options while maintaining good access to care.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-owned orthopedic practices in New Jersey often charge facility fees on top of physician fees, significantly increasing total visit costs. Major health systems like RWJBarnabas Health, Atlantic Health System, and Hackensack Meridian Health operate numerous locations throughout the state. Independent orthopedic practices generally offer lower rates but may have fewer locations and extended wait times.
Insurance Market Competition in New Jersey
The presence of multiple major insurers including Horizon BCBS, Aetna, and UHC creates moderate competition for provider networks. Horizon BCBS maintains the largest market share and strongest negotiating power with providers, often securing lower rates. Smaller insurers may have limited networks but sometimes offer competitive pricing for Hip Replacement Surgery visits.
Physician Supply and Demand in New Jersey
With over 6,500 active Hip Replacement Surgery providers, New Jersey has robust orthopedic specialist availability relative to its population size. This healthy provider supply helps moderate pricing compared to shortage areas in other states. Wait times for routine consultations are generally reasonable, though popular surgeons and subspecialists may book several weeks in advance.
