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 New Hampshire
Healthcare costs in New Hampshire run approximately 11% above the national average, reflecting the state's limited provider competition and higher operational costs in a state with no major metropolitan areas. The concentration of advanced surgical services around Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center and a few other health systems creates pricing power that affects costs statewide.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
New Hampshire's surgical specialists cluster primarily in Manchester, Nashua, and the Dartmouth-Hitchcock corridor, leaving rural areas of the North Country and western regions with limited local options. Patients in rural areas often face longer travel times to reach specialized breast surgeons, sometimes driving over an hour for consultations. This geographic concentration allows urban providers to maintain higher pricing due to limited competition.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-owned surgical practices dominate New Hampshire's healthcare landscape, with systems like Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Catholic Medical Center, and Elliot Health System operating most specialty clinics. These hospital-affiliated practices typically charge facility fees in addition to physician fees, increasing total consultation costs compared to the few remaining independent surgical offices. Academic medical center affiliations also tend to command premium pricing for subspecialty surgical consultations.
Insurance Market Competition in New Hampshire
The New Hampshire insurance market lacks robust competition, with Anthem BCBS, Harvard Pilgrim, and Cigna controlling the vast majority of covered lives, reducing their incentive to negotiate aggressively on rates. This limited competition particularly affects surgical specialist reimbursement, as providers have fewer alternative payer contracts to leverage in negotiations. The result is higher negotiated rates that translate to increased patient cost-sharing.
Physician Supply and Demand in New Hampshire
With over 3,600 mastectomy-capable providers reported in transparency data, New Hampshire appears to have adequate surgical capacity, though this likely includes many general surgeons who perform occasional breast procedures rather than dedicated breast surgical specialists. The actual number of high-volume breast surgeons is much smaller, concentrated at major medical centers, creating demand pressure that supports higher consultation fees. Wait times for initial consultations typically range from 1-3 weeks at most practices.
