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.

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 Massachusetts
Massachusetts healthcare costs run approximately 20% above the national average, driven by the state's concentration of prestigious academic medical centers and highly specialized surgical programs. The Commonwealth's relatively small geographic area but dense population creates unique cost dynamics, with significant variation between Boston's medical district and more rural areas in western Massachusetts.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
The Boston metropolitan area contains the highest concentration of gynecologic surgeons and advanced laparoscopic facilities in Massachusetts, while western counties like Berkshire and Franklin may have limited specialist availability. This geographic disparity often forces rural patients to travel to Boston or Springfield for complex procedures, potentially adding travel costs but sometimes finding lower facility fees. Urban areas typically offer more scheduling flexibility but higher overall procedure costs.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Massachusetts is home to major academic medical centers including Brigham and Women's Hospital, Mass General, and Boston Medical Center, which typically charge premium rates for surgical procedures due to their teaching hospital status and research overhead. Independent surgical centers and community hospitals often offer the same laparoscopic procedures at significantly lower facility fees. Hospital-owned practices have become dominant across Massachusetts, sometimes limiting price competition.
Insurance Market Competition in Massachusetts
The Massachusetts insurance market is moderately competitive with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts holding the largest market share, followed by Tufts Health Plan and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. This concentration among three major insurers creates strong negotiating power with providers, potentially keeping rates more controlled than in less competitive markets. The state's health insurance exchange adds additional plan options that can offer different provider networks and cost structures.
Physician Supply and Demand in Massachusetts
With over 1,012 active providers performing laparoscopic hysterectomy procedures, Massachusetts has one of the highest specialist densities in the nation relative to population. This robust supply generally helps keep wait times reasonable and provides patients with multiple options for cost comparison. The concentration of medical training programs in Boston continually adds new specialists to the market, maintaining competitive dynamics that can benefit patient choice and pricing.
