Pricing Patterns at HCA Ocala
For the 12 services with listed gross charges, cash prices match gross charges exactly, which means no cash discount is applied (a 0% difference). Insured rates vary widely, with the maximum often far above the minimum, such as MRI Brain Without Contrast at $3,019.86 to $17,648.51 and Chest X-ray, 2 Views at $253.65 to $1,902.40. Several procedures, including Total Knee Replacement ($3,242 to $35,535), Screening Colonoscopy and Cesarean Delivery, show $0 for gross and cash prices in the data, and the Complete Blood Count lists a single insured rate of $7.77, so cash price comparisons are not possible for those items.

"Cash price" is each hospital's published self-pay/discounted rate. Median is calculated across Ocala hospitals that publish a cash price for the same procedure. Multi-code procedures use each hospital's lowest valid price as its representative value.
Using HCA Ocala's Published Prices
Where HCA Ocala sits in Ocala. Seven procedures have cash prices from at least 2 Ocala hospitals, so they can be compared. At HCA Ocala, 1 is labeled 8% above median (ER Visit, $3,765.83 against an Ocala median of $3,486.90), none is below median, and 6 are near median (within 5%). The Echocardiogram, for example, is $11,522.72, the same as the Ocala median.
Cash next to insured rates. Every row with both values shows cash at 100% of gross, so no separate self-pay discount appears in this hospital's file. Of the 12 rows with a published cash price, 0 are below every insured rate, 3 are within the insured range (the three ER Visit levels) and 9 are above every insured rate. That means the cash figure is not a reduced price on these rows.
Asking before you schedule. A few things a reader can ask or check:
- Quote the billing code, such as 93306 for the Echocardiogram, and ask for the cash or self-pay price for that exact code.
- Ask for an itemized estimate and what it includes and leaves out. The prices on this page are facility charges only.
- Ask whether separate bills may come from professionals, such as a radiologist reading an MRI or CT, an ER physician, or a surgeon and anesthesia team for a procedure like a Total Knee Replacement.
- Ask whether the quote is in writing and how long it holds.
Missing values and the file's age. Five rows carry a data note because gross and cash were published as $0 or blank: 45378 and 45380 (Colonoscopy), 85025 (Complete Blood Count), 59510 (Cesarean Delivery) and 27447 (Total Knee Replacement). That is missing data, not a free service, so ask the billing office for a price on those. No values were left out as likely file errors. The file was updated 2026-09-01 and accessed by us 2026-10-12.
General information about using published prices, not medical, legal or financial advice. Confirm your own cost with the hospital and your insurer. Our methodology
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.
