Total cost estimates.
| TAH | TLH | TRH | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mean operative charge | $33,756 | $33,706 | $44,698* |
| Mean encounter charge | $54,110* | $39,367 | $51,552* |
| Expected societal cost | $59,997 | $41,339 | $54,062 |
TAH: total abdominal hysterectomy, TLH: total laparoscopic hysterectomy, and TRH: total robotic hysterectomy; *P < 0.01. Uncertainty in the expected societal costs is assessed using a Monte Carlo simulation (Figure 2).
