What these numbers are
Every figure on this page is a 2026 Medicare allowed amount: the physician line comes from the Physician Fee Schedule adjusted by geographic practice-cost indices, and the facility totals come from the CMS hospital outpatient (OPPS) and ambulatory surgery centre rates. None of them is a hospital chargemaster price, your insurer's contracted rate, or a quote. Anesthesia, pathology, imaging reads and follow-up care are billed under their own codes when they apply, and an inpatient stay is paid a different way again.

PE GPCI ranges from 0.996 to 1.111 in Oregon. That index is why the same CPT is not one price statewide.
Cesarean Delivery (Global) and how Oregon is priced
Oregon splits into a Portland metro locality and a rest-of-state locality, so the fee schedule prices the Willamette Valley's biggest market above Eugene, Bend, Medford, and the rural east. Portland's higher wages and office costs justify the premium, while the rest-of-state locality covers everything from the coast to the high desert at lower adjustments. The two-tier structure means an identical procedure is approved at different amounts on either side of the metro boundary. Oregon's overall indices sit somewhat above the national midpoint, led by the Portland side.
Portland concentrates the state's academic medicine and subspecialty care, drawing patients from all of Oregon and southwest Washington. Bend has grown into a notable central Oregon hub, and Medford serves the southern counties, but the eastern two thirds of the state remains sparsely served, with some residents closer to Boise than to Portland. Coastal communities also face limited local procedure options.
This procedure: This is the global maternity package for a planned or unplanned cesarean birth: routine prenatal visits, the cesarean delivery, and postpartum care in a single physician fee. A cesarean is major abdominal surgery performed in an operating room under spinal or epidural anesthesia, usually taking under an hour, with the parent awake for the birth. The hospital stay is longer than for a vaginal birth, typically two to four nights, with a six-week surgical recovery at home.
What Is Cesarean Delivery (Global)?
This is the global maternity package for a planned or unplanned cesarean birth: routine prenatal visits, the cesarean delivery, and postpartum care in a single physician fee. A cesarean is major abdominal surgery performed in an operating room under spinal or epidural anesthesia, usually taking under an hour, with the parent awake for the birth. The hospital stay is longer than for a vaginal birth, typically two to four nights, with a six-week surgical recovery at home.
What Affects the Cost
- –Hospital facility charges are substantially higher than for vaginal delivery, driven by operating room time and the longer inpatient stay.
- –The anesthesiologist bills separately for the spinal or epidural and for attending the surgery.
- –The newborn's own hospital account starts at birth, and cesarean deliveries have higher rates of brief NICU observation, which is billed at NICU rates.
- –An assistant surgeon, common in cesareans, may bill an additional professional fee.
- –Prenatal ultrasounds, labs, and any high-risk specialist visits are billed outside the global package.
- –A scheduled cesarean is generally cheaper than one that follows a long, fully billed labor with an epidural already running.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.What are the hospital's facility charges for a cesarean, including the typical length of stay?
- 2.Will an assistant surgeon be present, and do they bill separately under my plan?
- 3.Is the anesthesiology group in network, and what does the spinal or epidural cost?
- 4.How likely is NICU observation for my situation, and how would that be billed for the baby?
- 5.If I am attempting vaginal birth first, how do charges stack if it converts to a cesarean?
