Cash or insurance?
At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated. If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you usually pay your plan's negotiated rate, which falls somewhere in the "Insurers pay" column. Paying cash can cost less, but a cash payment usually does not count toward your deductible. Ask the hospital for both numbers before you book.
What it is
Cataract surgery removes the cloudy natural lens of the eye and replaces it with a clear artificial lens (intraocular lens). It is one of the most common surgeries in the US and is done on one eye at a time.
What the price covers
The facility price covers the operating room and a standard lens. The surgeon's fee, anesthesia, and upgraded lenses (toric or multifocal) are usually billed separately.
