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.

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 Utah
Utah's healthcare costs run approximately 2% below national averages, reflecting the state's efficient healthcare delivery model and competitive provider market. The concentration of major health systems along the Wasatch Front creates pricing competition while maintaining quality standards across orthopedic specialties.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Utah's population concentration along the Wasatch Front from Ogden to Provo creates abundant Hip Replacement Surgery options in urban areas, while rural counties often require travel to Salt Lake City or regional centers. This geographic disparity can affect both access and pricing, with urban providers typically charging higher rates but offering more scheduling flexibility. Rural patients may find lower surgical facility costs at regional hospitals but face additional travel expenses.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based orthopedic clinics affiliated with Intermountain Healthcare or University of Utah Health typically have higher overhead costs reflected in their pricing structure. Independent surgical centers and private orthopedic practices often provide more competitive Hip Replacement Surgery pricing while maintaining quality outcomes. The choice between academic medical centers and community-based practices can significantly impact your total procedure costs.
Insurance Market Competition in Utah
SelectHealth's dominant market position alongside BCBS UT and UHC creates a competitive environment that helps moderate Hip Replacement Surgery costs statewide. The regional focus of SelectHealth often results in stronger negotiated rates with Utah providers compared to national carriers. This competitive dynamic benefits patients through lower out-of-pocket costs and broader provider network options.
Physician Supply and Demand in Utah
Utah's 330 active Hip Replacement Surgery providers represent a robust supply relative to the state's population, helping maintain competitive pricing and reasonable wait times. The state's strong medical education programs and quality of life attract orthopedic surgeons, preventing the physician shortages seen in other western states. This adequate supply-demand balance typically results in more accessible scheduling and competitive pricing for patients seeking Hip Replacement Surgery.
