Cash versus insured pattern. Cash is 40% of gross on every row, so the cash price follows a fixed share of the listed charge. Against the insurer rates published here, cash is within the insured range on 12 rows, below every insured rate on 0 rows and above every insured rate on 1 row. That one row is the echocardiogram (93306), where cash is $1,785.20 and the insured range runs from $550.37 to $1,617.

What to ask before booking. Questions a reader can bring to the billing office:

  • Quote the billing code, such as 74177 for CT Abdomen and Pelvis with Contrast, and ask for the cash or self-pay price and an itemized estimate in writing.
  • Ask what the quote includes and what it leaves out, since these are facility charges.
  • Ask which separate professional bills may follow, for example a radiologist reading an MRI, CT or ultrasound, or an ER physician for a visit coded 99283, 99284 or 99285.

Data gaps and file date. No rows carry a $0, blank or left-out value, so there are no gaps to flag on this page. The prices come from a CSV file updated 01/01/2026, and the insurer rates cover 645 entries from 23 payer names.

Understanding the Columns

Gross Charge: The chargemaster price before any discounts. Rarely what patients pay. It is primarily a starting point for insurance negotiations.

Cash/Self-Pay: The discounted rate hospitals offer to uninsured patients. Ask about financial assistance programs for further reductions.

Insured Range: Lowest to highest negotiated rates across all payers. Medicare rates are typically lowest; commercial plan rates highest.

About Facility Fees

Prices shown are facility fees only. You'll also receive separate bills from the physician performing the procedure.

Imaging procedures include a facility fee plus a radiologist's reading fee. Surgical procedures add surgeon, anesthesia, and pathology fees.

For a more complete estimate, contact the hospital's financial counselling office or your insurer to request a pre-service cost estimate that includes all expected professional fees.
