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 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.
Where this data comes from & what CPT 58571 covers
Data source: Cost figures are derived from UnitedHealthcare Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files for CPT code 58571 (Laparoscopic total hysterectomy), as mandated by the CMS Price Transparency Rule.
What CPT 58571 covers: the provider's professional fee for hysterectomy (laparoscopic). 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 Hysterectomy Visit Costs Vary Across Delaware
Delaware's healthcare costs run approximately 11% above the national average, reflecting the state's proximity to high-cost metropolitan markets in Philadelphia and Baltimore. The First State's small geographic footprint creates unique market dynamics where a handful of health systems control most specialty care delivery.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Most of Delaware's gynecologic surgeons practice in New Castle County near Wilmington and Newark, creating longer travel distances and potentially higher costs for residents of rural Sussex and Kent counties. This concentration of specialists in the northern corridor can lead to pricing premiums due to reduced competition in southern Delaware.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
ChristianaCare and Bayhealth dominate Delaware's hospital market, with their employed physician networks typically charging higher facility fees than independent surgical centers. Ambulatory surgery centers often provide more competitive pricing for laparoscopic procedures, though fewer options exist compared to larger states.
Insurance Market Competition in Delaware
With primarily Highmark, Aetna, and UnitedHealthcare serving the individual and employer markets, Delaware has limited insurer competition compared to larger states. This concentrated market can result in less aggressive rate negotiations between insurers and providers, potentially contributing to higher patient costs.
Physician Supply and Demand in Delaware
Delaware's 83 active hysterectomy providers serve a population of nearly one million residents, creating adequate but not abundant access to gynecologic surgery. This moderate supply-demand balance helps prevent extreme pricing variations but may limit patients' ability to shop extensively for the lowest-cost options.
