What Affects the Price?

Robotic-assisted hysterectomy costs $3,000-$8,000 more than vaginal but offers faster recovery. Vaginal hysterectomy is least expensive and preferred when possible. Radical hysterectomy (for cancer) costs significantly more due to extended surgery and longer hospital stays. Outpatient laparoscopic hysterectomy can cost 40% less than inpatient.

Key Cost Factors

  • Vaginal vs abdominal vs laparoscopic vs robotic
  • Partial vs total vs radical
  • Inpatient vs outpatient
  • Oophorectomy included
  • Facility fees
  • Surgeon fees
