Cash or insurance?
If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you pay the rate your plan negotiated with the hospital, not the cash price. Hospital price files list those rates too: for ventral hernia repair, over 10 cm, the highest negotiated rate in a hospital's file has a median of $13,570.41 and the lowest a median of $1,377.00. At 301 of 373 hospitals that publish both, the cash price is below the highest negotiated rate.
With a high deductible, cash can cost less. But a cash payment may not count toward your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum: ask your plan for its rate at that hospital (most have a cost estimator) and whether it will credit a cash payment.
Plan's rate starts at the median highest negotiated rate and cash at the national median; put in your own numbers. Nothing you type leaves your device. To price a whole year with premiums, use the insurance or cash calculator.
What is CPT 49595?
This code covers the first repair of a large hernia in the front of the belly, when the opening is wider than 10 cm.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers the operating room, recovery and supplies. The surgeon and anesthesia usually bill separately.
Why prices differ
Ambulatory surgery centers often charge much less than hospitals, and hospital prices for the same operation vary widely.
What to ask
Ask whether the self-pay price for CPT 49595 is a bundled price that includes the surgeon, anesthesia and follow-up visits.

Common questions
What is CPT code 49595?
CPT 49595 is the billing code for first repair of a front abdominal hernia larger than 10 cm. This code covers the first repair of a large hernia in the front of the belly, when the opening is wider than 10 cm.
Does a large hernia need a hospital stay?
Often yes, especially with an open repair.
Why repair a hernia that does not hurt?
Large hernias can trap bowel, which is an emergency. Your surgeon will weigh the risks.
Is it cheaper to pay cash or use insurance for ventral hernia repair, over 10 cm?
It depends on your deductible. Until you meet it, you pay your plan's negotiated rate, not the cash price. In hospital price files the highest negotiated rate for ventral hernia repair, over 10 cm has a median of $13,570.41 and the lowest a median of $1,377.00; at 301 of 373 hospitals the cash price is below the highest negotiated rate. A cash payment may not count toward your deductible, so ask your plan for its rate at that hospital first.
Which states have the cheapest ventral hernia repair, over 10 cm?
Among 28 states with at least 5 hospitals listing a cash price, the median is lowest in Minnesota ($2,465.82), North Carolina ($4,688.00) and Kansas ($5,342.40), and highest in Indiana ($30,780.89), Virginia ($27,809.47) and Ohio ($26,991.60). Prices vary as much between hospitals in the same state, so compare hospitals near you.
