What this is
Surgical male sterilization.
What affects the price
A surgical price almost never includes the separate bills you may receive from the surgeon, anesthesiologist, or pathologist. Ask the hospital for a bundled good-faith estimate that lists every expected charge, not just this one.

Hospitals that publish vasectomy prices
Vasectomy: frequently asked
- How much does vasectomy cost at a hospital?
- Across the published hospital price files, disclosed cash prices for vasectomy range from $77.52 to $11,342. This is public hospital price transparency data, not a guaranteed estimate of your bill.
- Will my bill match these prices?
- 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 counts as vasectomy here?
- We group vasectomy by the billing codes hospitals use for it (55250). Exact services and codes can vary by hospital and clinical situation.
- Why do hospitals show such different prices?
- Hospitals set their own prices and negotiate separately with each insurer, so published prices for the same service can differ widely between hospitals — and between plans at one hospital. Use the comparison to see the range and ask informed questions; 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 category of service. Your actual cost depends on your insurance, the exact services performed, and the care setting — always confirm with the hospital and your plan.
