Potential Advantages of Outpatient Hip Replacement

A doctor may suggest outpatient hip replacement if he or she believes you will have the same or better outcome as you would with inpatient admission to a hospital for hip replacement.

The potential advantages of outpatient hip replacement include:

You will have a lower risk of infection. In general, the less time you spend in the hospital the less likely you are to get a postsurgical infection.1

You may be happier at home. Like many people, you may prefer to recover at home, where you can sleep in your own bed and eat familiar foods.

It may cost less. The medical costs associated with hospital care are increasing, and outpatient surgery could save you thousands of dollars, 2 depending on your provider and insurance.

If you decide to have outpatient hip replacement surgery, the surgical staff will spend a lot of time educating you and your caregiver before releasing you home. In fact, one research study3 found that, compared to inpatients, outpatients were more satisfied with the level of patient education they received regarding medications and what symptoms or problems to look out for after surgery.
