Circumcision is a minor surgery that removes the foreskin. The code depends on age: 54150 is the common newborn procedure with a clamp or device and a numbing nerve block, while 54160 and 54161 are surgical circumcision for older children and adults. A newborn circumcision is usually done in the hospital or a doctor's office within the first days of life, and an older child or adult procedure usually needs more anesthesia, so the price is higher.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Ask whether the price includes the doctor's fee and anesthesia; at birth, the hospital stay and the procedure are billed separately.
  • If it is for a newborn, ask whether your insurance covers it before you decide, since some plans do and some do not.
  • A doctor's office or a clinic may charge less than a hospital for the same procedure.
