Using CHI Memorial Hixson's Published Prices
Where CHI Memorial Hixson sits among Chattanooga hospitals. The comparison table covers 7 procedures, and CHI Memorial Hospital Hixson is below the Chattanooga median on all 7, with none above and none near the median.

Cash price and the insured range. Where a cash price is published, it is 30% of gross. Of the 13 rows with a cash price, cash is within the insured range on 13, below every insured rate on 0 and above every insured rate on 0. Cash does not equal gross on any row that has both values. For example, the Chest X-ray, code 71046, lists $203.36 cash against $687 gross.
Points to settle with billing before a visit. A reader can ask:
- Which billing code the quote uses (for example 71046 for a chest X-ray or 99284 for an ER visit).
- What the cash or self-pay price is, and whether an itemized estimate can be provided in writing.
- What the quote includes and what it leaves out, since the listed prices are facility charges.
- Whether separate professional bills apply, such as a radiologist reading an imaging study, an ER physician, a surgeon or anesthesia.
Zero and blank prices, plus the file date. Four rows carry a data note: Screening Colonoscopy (45378), Colonoscopy with Biopsy (45380), Cesarean Delivery (59510) and Total Knee Replacement (27447). Their gross and cash values were published as $0 or blank, which means missing data, not a free service. The last two also had a low insured outlier left out. The file was updated 2026-02-28 and accessed by us 2026-10-09, so current prices may differ.

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.
