In 2024 Medicare data, a hospital stay for fracture, sprain, strain and dislocation except femur, hip, pelvis and thigh without major complications (DRG 563) at 21 hospitals in Virginia was billed at $38,453 on average, while the average total payment was $7,444, of which Medicare paid $5,416. Your own cost depends on your insurance, deductible and the hospital.
Charges are a hospital's list prices. Medicare pays fixed rates set in advance, and private insurers negotiate their own discounts, so almost nobody pays the full charge. For this stay in Virginia, average charges were 5.2 times the average payment. Uninsured patients can ask the hospital about its financial assistance (charity care) policy and cash prices.
