C-Section Cost in Jacksonville, FL

How much does a c-section cost without insurance in Jacksonville?

The cash price for a c-section without insurance cannot be stated from this page. Neither HCA Florida Memorial Hospital nor HCA Florida Orange Park Hospital published a cash price for code 59510, so those figures are missing data and not a real price of zero. Both hospitals did publish insured rates from $1,950 to $14,306, but those apply to people with insurance. A patient paying without insurance can ask the hospital's billing office for a written estimate. Professional fees, such as the surgeon and anesthesia, are billed separately from the facility charge and are not included in any figure on this page.

Why is the gross charge so much higher than the cash price?

A gross charge is the list price a hospital sets before negotiated discounts, and it is often much higher than what is actually paid. On this page the comparison cannot be made. Both HCA Florida Memorial Hospital and HCA Florida Orange Park Hospital show the gross charge for code 59510 as $0 or blank, and neither publishes a cash price. Because both numbers are missing, there is no cash-to-gross percentage to report. Missing entries should be read as unpublished data, not as prices of zero. The only published figures for this code are the insured rates, which range from $1,950 to $14,306.

Does insurance cover a c-section?

Whether a c-section is covered, and how much you owe, depends on your specific plan, so this page cannot say what any plan pays. Both hospitals on this page published insured rates for code 59510, from $1,950 to $14,306. At HCA Florida Memorial Hospital, the payer table lists 84 published rates, with Optimum Healthcare at $1,950 and Cigna at $14,306. If you have a high-deductible plan and have not met your deductible, you usually pay the plan's negotiated rate until it is met. Your insurer can confirm your rate and your out-of-pocket costs.

Are there additional fees beyond the c-section facility charge?

Yes. The facility charge for code 59510 is only one part of the total. Separate bills commonly come from the surgeon or obstetrician, the anesthesiologist, and sometimes an assistant surgeon. Pathology or laboratory work, and the newborn's care, which may include a pediatrician or neonatal specialists, are often billed separately as well. Some hospital stays also generate separate charges for imaging, medications or room days. These professional and ancillary bills may come from different providers on different timelines, so itemized statements from each can help you see the full picture.
