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 58571Laparoscopic 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 Vermont

Vermont's healthcare costs run approximately 15% above national averages due to the state's rural geography and limited provider competition. The concentration of advanced surgical facilities around Burlington creates cost and access disparities for patients in more remote areas of the state.

Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability

Most fellowship-trained gynecologic surgeons practice in the Burlington area or along the Interstate 89 corridor, leaving rural counties with limited local options. Patients in northeastern Vermont often travel to Dartmouth-Hitchcock in New Hampshire, while southern Vermont residents may seek care in Albany or Springfield for more competitive pricing.

Facility Type and Overhead Costs

The University of Vermont Medical Center dominates Burlington's market, with higher facility fees than independent surgical centers found in smaller communities. Community hospitals like Southwestern Vermont Medical Center offer competitive pricing but may refer complex cases to larger regional centers.

Insurance Market Competition in Vermont

The limited number of major insurers—primarily BCBS Vermont and MVP Health Care—reduces competitive pressure on negotiated rates compared to states with more diverse insurance markets. This concentration can result in higher baseline costs but more predictable pricing across different providers within the same network.

Physician Supply and Demand in Vermont

With 325 active Hysterectomy providers serving Vermont's population of roughly 650,000, the state maintains adequate surgical capacity in urban areas but experiences shortages in rural regions. This geographic mismatch can create longer wait times and higher costs for patients who prefer to stay within state borders for their care.

Frequently Asked Questions — Hysterectomy Costs in Vermont

What is the average cost of a Hysterectomy visit in Vermont without insurance?

Uninsured patients can expect to pay between $678 and $2,143 for laparoscopic hysterectomy consultations and procedures in Vermont, with a median cost around $1,043 based on negotiated insurance rates. Many facilities offer self-pay discounts of 20-40% off these rates for patients who pay upfront, making the actual out-of-pocket cost potentially lower than these figures suggest.

Does Vermont Medicaid cover Hysterectomy visits?

Yes, Vermont's expanded Medicaid program covers medically necessary hysterectomy consultations and procedures with minimal out-of-pocket costs for eligible patients. Coverage includes both the surgical procedure and related services like pre-operative consultations, imaging studies, and post-operative care when deemed medically appropriate.

How do I find an affordable Hysterectomy near me in Vermont?

Compare pricing between hospital-based surgical centers and independent ambulatory surgery facilities, as costs can vary significantly. Many Vermont providers offer substantial self-pay discounts, and community health centers may provide sliding-scale fees based on income. Consider facilities slightly outside major metropolitan areas, which often have lower overhead costs.

What is the difference in cost between an initial consultation and a follow-up visit?

Initial consultations with a gynecologic surgeon typically cost more than follow-up visits due to the comprehensive evaluation required, though specific pricing data varies by provider and insurance plan. Follow-up visits for post-operative care or monitoring are generally shorter and less expensive, but the exact cost difference depends on the complexity of your case and whether additional procedures or tests are needed.

Can I use an HSA or FSA to pay for a Hysterectomy visit in Vermont?

Yes, consultations and surgical procedures with gynecologic surgeons qualify as eligible medical expenses for both Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA). This includes the surgeon's fees, facility costs, anesthesia, and related medical expenses like pre-operative testing and post-operative medications.

How does telemedicine affect the cost of seeing a Hysterectomy in Vermont?

Telemedicine consultations typically cost less than in-person visits and can be useful for initial consultations, follow-up care, or second opinions. However, physical examination is usually necessary for surgical planning, so telehealth serves as a complement to rather than replacement for in-person gynecologic surgical care. Many Vermont practices now offer hybrid care models combining virtual and in-person visits.
