Code 59400: frequently asked
- What does code 59400 cost?
- Across the published hospital price files, the disclosed cash price for 59400 ranges from $3,448 to $7,038. This is public hospital price transparency data, not a guaranteed estimate of your bill.
- Will this be my final bill?
- Actual patient responsibility may vary based on your insurance plan, deductible, coinsurance, network status, diagnosis, setting, bundled services, clinical circumstances, and hospital billing practices.
- What is code 59400?
- 59400 is the billing code hospitals use to identify "Obstetrical care" on their published price files. We use it to line up the same service across different hospitals.
- Why do prices for this code differ between hospitals?
- Each hospital sets its own prices and negotiates separately with each insurer, so the disclosed price for the same code can vary widely from one hospital to another — and even between plans at a single hospital. Comparing the published figures is what this page is for; a difference does not by itself mean one hospital is better or worse.
- What this page is not
- It is not a quote, a guarantee, or medical advice. It shows what hospitals have published for this code, so you can compare and ask informed questions — your actual cost depends on your insurance, the exact services performed, and the care setting.
