Traditional cost analysis methods often overlook the distribution of costs across patient demographics and clinical factors. This study employs a quantile regression model to explore the determinants of hospitalization costs for adult inguinal hernia surgery, providing a detailed understanding of cost variations across different quantiles.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We analyzed data from adult patients who underwent inguinal hernia surgery at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2015 to June 2023. The study included patient demographics, hernia-related information, surgery-related details, and cost-related data. A quantile regression model was used to assess the impact of various factors on hospitalization costs at different quantiles (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%). Data were processed using StataSE 15.0 software.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Our study included 16,602 patients, predominantly male (91.86%) and Han Chinese (96.48%), with the 51-64 years age group being the largest (26.80%).

Younger patients incurred higher costs, with age coefficients ranging from -40.541 at the 90th quantile to -3.082 at the 10th quantile. Uninsured patients faced higher costs, with coefficients from 214.747 at the 80th quantile to 501.78 at the 10th quantile.
