ACL Surgery Cost by City in Minnesota
ACL Surgery Cost in Other States
What Affects ACL Surgery Cost in Minnesota
The cost of acl surgery in Minnesota depends on several factors, including the type of facility, whether you have insurance, and local market dynamics.
The price of acl surgery varies based on hospital size, ownership type (nonprofit vs. for-profit), and whether the facility belongs to a large health system. Consolidated systems often maintain higher prices due to reduced local competition.
Based on data from 61 hospitals in Minnesota, acl surgery prices range from $22 to $44,019 — a 2000.8x difference. This wide variation underscores why comparing prices before scheduling is critical for controlling your out-of-pocket costs.
Hospital vs. Outpatient Center Pricing in Minnesota
Hospital pricing for acl surgery in Minnesota varies based on facility size, ownership type, and local market competition. Larger health systems and academic medical centers often have higher chargemaster prices, while community hospitals and outpatient clinics may offer more competitive rates.
When comparing options for acl surgery, consider both price and quality metrics. MyCareCost includes compliance and quality data alongside pricing to help you make a more informed decision.
Self-Pay vs. Insurance Cost Differences in Minnesota
Self-pay patients in Minnesota often have access to significantly discounted rates for acl surgery. Under federal price transparency rules (45 CFR § 180.50), hospitals must publish their discounted cash prices alongside standard charges.
In Minnesota, the average cash price for acl surgery is $5,011, which is 27% lower than the average list price of $6,833. This discount is typical of what self-pay patients can expect when asking for the hospital's uninsured rate.
For insured patients, the negotiated rate between your plan and the hospital determines your cost share. If you haven't met your deductible, you may pay more than the cash price. It's worth asking the hospital whether their self-pay rate is lower than what your insurance would charge — some patients save money by not filing a claim.
