According to a 2010 article in Managed Care Magazine, the average cost for infants in NICU is around $3,000 per day. This average does not include surgeries or helicopter transports.he overall cost for a baby's stay in the NICU is typically determined by his length of stay there. Each baby spends different amounts of time in the NICU, depending on the reasons for being there in the first place.
