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.
National vs Wyoming
Where Wyoming ranks for this CPT
Cesarean Delivery (Global) and how Wyoming is priced
The least populous state in the nation, Wyoming is priced through one statewide locality whose indices sit in the lowest national tier, supported by the rural work index floor. Cheyenne, Casper, and a mountain hamlet in the Winds all share identical Medicare-approved amounts. With no city large enough to form its own market in CMS's eyes, the fee schedule is as simple here as anywhere in America. The hard part of Wyoming health care has never been the published price; it is reaching a provider who performs the procedure.
Wyoming has no academic medical center of its own, so complex care routinely means a trip to Denver, Salt Lake City, Billings, or Fort Collins, and residents plan major procedures around those referral routes. Cheyenne, Casper, Jackson, and Gillette support the state's larger hospitals, while frontier counties depend on small critical access facilities. Distances and winter weather make telehealth and travel planning unusually important here.
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?

Wyoming is a single Medicare locality for this fee schedule. The 2026 physician rate for CPT 59510 is $2,360.44 in an office and $2,360.44 in a hospital, statewide. A ZIP lookup still confirms the locality mapping.
Not on the physician fee schedule. Wyoming uses one locality, so the Medicare physician rate is the same from one end of the state to the other. What still changes is site of service (office vs hospital) and any facility fee the hospital bills on its own claim.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $472 for the office physician line or $472 for the hospital physician line in Wyoming. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
No. $2,360.44 is the Medicare physician allowed amount for CPT 59510. Anesthesia, facility fees, implants, and other CPT codes billed the same day are extra. Wyoming ranks #20 of 51 states on this physician line (5% below the national office rate of $2,473.34).
