How much is a knee replacement and hospital stay with no insurance?

The average cost of a knee replacement in the United States without insurance is $30,000 to $50,000. This includes the cost of the surgery, the hospital stay, and the rehabilitation. The cost can vary depending on the type of knee replacement, the hospital, and the surgeon.

The hospital stay for a knee replacement typically lasts for 2-3 days. During this time, the patient will be monitored for complications and will begin physical therapy to help them recover. After the hospital stay, the patient will continue physical therapy on an outpatient basis for several weeks.

The cost of rehabilitation after a knee replacement can vary depending on the type of therapy and the number of sessions required. The average cost of rehabilitation is $2,000 to $4,000.

If you do not have health insurance, you may be able to get help paying for your knee replacement surgery through a government program or a charity. You can also negotiate with the hospital or the surgeon to get a lower price.
