Myomectomy cost

Myomectomy cost means the total price of surgical removal of uterine fibroids, including pre-op, procedure, and aftercare. Insurance plans like Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield usually cover myomectomy when medically necessary, but coverage varies by plan details.

The average uninsured cash price for a myomectomy in the U.S. Ranges from $10,000 to $20,000 according to Healthcare Bluebook data.

High-deductible health insurance plans frequently require patients to pay between $3,000 and $7,000 out-of-pocket before full coverage activates. Robotic-assisted myomectomy costs more (about $2,500–$4,000 higher) than traditional laparoscopic or abdominal approaches based on hospital billing data.

Medicaid covers medically-necessary myomectomy in most states with minimal copayments; for example, California Medi-Cal requires only nominal fees under $50. Medicare Part A and B cover inpatient or outpatient myomectomy at 80% after deductibles, per CMS guidelines.

Outpatient myomectomies typically cost less–averaging $7,400 versus $13,500 for inpatient stays according to Fair Health reports. Additional expenses like anesthesia ($1,200–$2,800) and pathology ($150–$700) are separate from facility fees in typical billing examples.

Hospitals such as Cleveland Clinic or Mayo Clinic provide financial assistance programs that can reduce self-pay costs by up to 70%. Patients can verify specific myomectomy costs in-network using insurer tools like UnitedHealthcare’s Treatment Cost Estimator or BCBS’s Find Care platform, as stated by YourInsurance.info (Your Insurance Info).
