The median negotiated rate is $424.80. Lowest figures can reflect Medicaid or Medicare rather than commercial plans, so the listed plan type matters.

Commercial PPO and HMO plans are higher. The "lowest rate" at each hospital may be a Medicaid or Medicare plan rate, not a commercial plan rate. The plan type is shown in the table where available.

Check which plan a figure belongs to before comparing it with your own.

Questions to bring about your AvMed chest x-ray. These are facility rates, and professional fees such as a radiologist's reading are billed separately. You can ask:

  • AvMed: your own plan's negotiated rate and estimated cost share at a named hospital, such as Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville.
  • AvMed: whether that hospital is in network for your plan.
  • The hospital: an estimate for the exam before you go.

Understanding AvMed Negotiated Rates

A negotiated rate is the price AvMed has agreed to pay a hospital for a specific service. This is not necessarily what you pay out of pocket. If you have met your annual deductible, you typically pay a copay or coinsurance percentage of the negotiated rate. If you have not met your deductible, you may owe the full negotiated rate.

The same insurer often negotiates different rates at different hospitals, and different plan types (HMO, PPO, high-deductible) within the same insurer can have different rates at the same hospital. The table above shows the range across all AvMed plan types at each facility.

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