Hysterectomy in Illinois: What to Know
Illinois offers diverse hysterectomy options. Silver Cross Hospital in New Lenox is a COEMIG-designated facility, performing more hysterectomies than any other Chicago-area center, with physicians worldwide observing their surgical team. UChicago Medicine also excels, performing over 80% of its hysterectomies using minimally invasive techniques. Robotic-assisted procedures via the da Vinci Surgical System are available at several facilities, including Memorial Health and Northwestern Women's Health Associates.
For potential cost savings, consider Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs). While Illinois was a late adopter, 122 Medicare-certified ASCs now perform significant surgeries annually. A hysterectomy performed at an ASC can be significantly less expensive than a hospital procedure. Verify current pricing directly with providers.
