The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 58571 — Laparoscopic total hysterectomy). 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.

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 Hysterectomy Visit Costs Vary Across Colorado
Colorado's healthcare costs run approximately 7% above the national average, driven by the state's unique geographic challenges and concentrated provider networks in metropolitan areas. The state's mix of affluent ski resort communities, sprawling rural counties, and competitive urban markets creates significant cost variations for specialized procedures like hysterectomy.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Denver's Front Range corridor from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs concentrates most of the state's gynecologic specialists, while western slope communities like Grand Junction and Durango face limited specialist access requiring patient travel or higher local rates. Mountain resort areas including Vail and Aspen command premium pricing due to high operating costs and affluent patient populations. Rural eastern Colorado counties often lack local specialists entirely, forcing patients to travel 2-3 hours for surgical consultations.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based outpatient departments at major Colorado health systems like UCHealth, Presbyterian/St. Joseph, and SCL Health typically carry 40-50% higher facility fees than independent ambulatory surgery centers. Denver's competitive market supports numerous independent surgical facilities that often provide more transparent pricing and lower overall costs for laparoscopic procedures. Academic medical centers like University of Colorado Hospital command premium rates but offer complex case expertise and resident training programs.
Insurance Market Competition in Colorado
Colorado's competitive insurance landscape includes strong participation from UHC, Anthem, and Kaiser, creating varied negotiated rate structures across different plan types and geographic regions. The state's robust marketplace competition helps contain premium growth but results in complex network configurations that vary significantly between insurers. Rural areas often face limited insurer participation, reducing negotiating power and potentially increasing patient costs.
Physician Supply and Demand in Colorado
With 1,315 active providers performing laparoscopic hysterectomy procedures statewide, Colorado maintains adequate specialist supply in metropolitan areas while facing shortages in rural regions. The state's population growth exceeds physician supply growth in certain specialties, potentially driving up costs and extending wait times for elective procedures. Colorado's physician-friendly practice environment and quality of life attract specialists but high real estate and operating costs offset some competitive advantages.
