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 19301 — Mastectomy, partial / simple complete). 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 19301 covers
Data source: Cost figures are derived from UnitedHealthcare Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files for CPT code 19301 (Mastectomy, partial / simple complete), as mandated by the CMS Price Transparency Rule.
What CPT 19301 covers: the provider's professional fee for mastectomy. 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 Mastectomy Visit Costs Vary Across Nevada
Nevada's healthcare costs run approximately 8% above national averages, reflecting the state's rapid population growth and concentration of residents in Las Vegas and Reno metropolitan areas. The state's unique geographic challenges include vast rural counties with limited specialist access and urban areas experiencing physician shortages relative to population growth.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Las Vegas and Reno metropolitan areas house 85% of Nevada's population and surgical specialists, while rural counties like Nye, Elko, and White Pine rely on telemedicine consultations and patient travel for mastectomy procedures. This geographic concentration creates cost disparities where rural patients may pay additional travel expenses but potentially access lower facility fees at smaller regional hospitals. Urban areas offer more provider choice but typically command higher rates due to increased overhead costs and market demand.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-owned surgical centers affiliated with major Nevada health systems like Sunrise Health, Renown Health, and Saint Mary's typically charge higher facility fees than independent ambulatory surgery centers. Las Vegas's growing ASC market creates competitive pricing pressure, while smaller communities may have limited facility options. Academic medical centers like UMC in Las Vegas may offer research protocols but often carry premium pricing for routine procedures.
Insurance Market Competition in Nevada
Nevada's insurance marketplace features moderate competition among UHC, Anthem, and Aetna, creating negotiated rate variations for mastectomy procedures across different plans. The state's lack of an all-payer claims database limits price transparency, though individual insurers have increased their transparency reporting. Rural areas may have fewer in-network options, potentially leading to higher out-of-pocket costs for patients in remote counties.
Physician Supply and Demand in Nevada
Nevada's 2,400+ active mastectomy providers represent adequate supply in urban areas but potential shortages in rural regions relative to national benchmarks. The state's rapid population growth has outpaced physician recruitment, contributing to longer wait times and higher prices in popular metropolitan markets. Recent expansion of residency programs and telemedicine services aims to address supply constraints, though geographic maldistribution remains a persistent challenge.
