What it is
This code bundles the doctor's care for a pregnancy with a cesarean birth: prenatal visits, the operation, and the check-up afterwards.
What to expect
Care runs from the first prenatal visit through about six weeks after the birth.
What moves the bill
This is a package price for professional care. The hospital stay for the birth and the baby's care are billed separately.

Common questions
How much does C-section cost at a hospital in Arizona?
These are hospital prices; independent clinics, imaging centers and labs often charge less.
Does the price include the doctor?
No. These are the hospital's own charges, often called the facility fee. The doctors involved, such as the surgeon, the anesthesiologist or the radiologist who reads a scan, usually send a separate bill.
Before you go
- Ask for an estimate. Hospitals must give uninsured and self-pay patients a written good-faith estimate before planned care.
- Check the network. Confirm that the hospital and the doctors are in your plan's network.
- Ask about financial help. Non-profit hospitals must have a financial assistance policy; many discount or forgive bills by income.
- Get an itemized bill. Compare it with the estimate and question anything you don't recognise.
