What a Hysterectomy Costs Elsewhere
Hysterectomy prices are some of the hardest to predict, because the surgeon, hospital, anesthesiologist, and pathology lab usually bill separately. Sidecar Health’s Texas figures put the average cash price at $6,519 at a surgery center and $12,560 at an outpatient hospital. MDsave lists laparoscopic hysterectomy from $8,569 to $26,071. A study of hospital hysterectomy costs found mean total costs of $38,312 for laparoscopic and $43,622 for abdominal procedures.
SCO’s price isn’t the lowest number published anywhere, but it’s one fixed price that covers the whole surgery, and you’ll know it before you schedule.
Price-scale comparison
SCO is the only fixed point on this scale. The bars are published cash ranges from Sidecar Health and MDsave, and each is wide because every fee is billed separately. At $9,190, SCO sits near the low end of MDsave’s laparoscopic range and below the typical outpatient-hospital price.
What Are These Procedures?
A laparoscopic vaginal hysterectomy is a minimally invasive outpatient surgery to remove the uterus when symptoms or medical conditions make it necessary.
- Laparoscopy: A camera and instruments are inserted through small incisions in the abdomen for visualization.
- Vaginal Hysterectomy: The uterus is removed through the vaginal canal, reducing external scarring and shortening recovery.
- Combined Approach: Using laparoscopy with a vaginal removal allows precise surgery with less discomfort compared to open abdominal procedures.
An open abdominal hysterectomy removes the uterus through an incision in the lower abdomen. It’s usually recommended for a larger uterus or more complex cases, and at SCO its price includes an overnight stay. Some patients also need a bladder sling or pelvic floor repair at the same time, which is why those combined procedures have their own prices in the table above.
Who Is It For?
- Uterine fibroids, endometriosis, pelvic pain, or abnormal bleeding.
- Benign gynecologic conditions where the uterus is small to medium in size (≤ 250 g).
- Patients who prefer a minimally invasive approach with faster recovery.
- Those paying upfront, uninsured, or on high-deductible health plans seeking cost certainty.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a hysterectomy cost without insurance?
At Surgery Center of Oklahoma, a laparoscopic vaginal hysterectomy is $9,190 all-inclusive, covering the surgeon, facility, anesthesia, and uncomplicated follow-up care. An open abdominal hysterectomy, including the overnight stay, is $10,390. Published cash prices elsewhere range from about $5,786 to $15,849 by state, and hospital charges can be much higher.
Are hysterectomies covered by insurance?
Usually, when the surgery is medically necessary, but you’ll still pay your deductible and coinsurance, and costs climb quickly if any provider is out of network. SCO’s published price is the same whether or not you have insurance, so some patients with high deductibles compare it with their expected out-of-pocket cost.
Does the type of hysterectomy change the price?
Yes. At SCO, a laparoscopic vaginal hysterectomy is $9,190, an open abdominal hysterectomy with an overnight stay is $10,390, and procedures that add a bladder sling or pelvic repair range from $10,482 to $12,055. Your surgeon will recommend the right approach, and you’ll know that price before you schedule.
What is a laparoscopic hysterectomy used for?
It is typically performed to treat fibroids, endometriosis, abnormal bleeding, prolapse, or pelvic pain when conservative treatments fail.
Is a laparoscopic hysterectomy a major or minor surgery?
It is considered a major surgery but is less invasive than open abdominal hysterectomy. Because it uses small incisions, patients often recover faster with fewer complications.
How long is the recovery after a laparoscopic hysterectomy?
Most patients return to light activities in 2–4 weeks, compared to 6–8 weeks after an abdominal hysterectomy. Full recovery depends on overall health and the exact surgical approach.
What are the disadvantages of a laparoscopic hysterectomy?
Some patients may experience bloating, temporary pain, or rare complications like organ injury. In certain cases (larger uteri, extensive adhesions), an abdominal approach may be more appropriate.
Will my body change after a hysterectomy?
Most patients notice relief from painful symptoms. Some may experience hormonal changes if the ovaries are removed. The surgery does not directly cause weight changes, though activity and diet during recovery can influence body composition.
Do I need to stay overnight?
Most patients go home the same day. In some cases, an overnight stay may be recommended.
