Pricing Patterns at HCA North Florida
At HCA Florida North Florida Hospital, the listed cash price matches the gross charge for every service that has a nonzero gross charge, which is a 0% discount, so self-pay patients are shown the same figure as the full chargemaster rate (for example $6,544.52 for an MRI of the brain without contrast and $24,506.33 for a CT of the abdomen and pelvis without contrast). Insured rates vary widely within the same service, such as CT Abdomen and Pelvis without Contrast at $3,773.97 to $24,506.33 and a Level 5 ER visit at $2,441.56 to $11,688.31, and the top of many insured ranges equals the cash price. Several procedures, including total knee replacement ($1,950 to $31,116) and screening colonoscopy ($1,950 to $16,238), list $0 for gross and cash prices while showing insured amounts, and CT Abdomen and Pelvis with Contrast shows a $29,323.57 cash price against insured rates of only $968 to $1,332.

Cash price and insured rates here. Cash is 100% of gross on every row that has both values, so no separate self-pay discount appears in this file. Of the rows with a published cash price, cash is below every insured rate on 0, within the insured range on 6, and above every insured rate on 6. The file lists 1,321 insurer rate entries from 45 payer names, so a negotiated rate may differ from the cash figure.
Asking before you schedule.
- Quote the billing code, such as 71046 for a 2-view chest X-ray, and ask for the cash or self-pay price along with an itemized estimate.
- Ask what the quote includes and what it leaves out. The prices on this page are facility charges.
- Ask whether separate professional bills apply, for example a radiologist reading an MRI, CT or ultrasound, an ER physician for an ER visit, or a surgeon and anesthesia for a knee replacement or cesarean delivery.
Blank prices and file date. Five rows have a data note: gross and cash were published as $0 or blank for 45378, 45380, 85025, 59510 and 27447. That is missing data, not a free service, so a written quote is the way to confirm those prices. The file was updated 2026-09-01 and we accessed it on 2026-10-08.

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.
