Cigna's negotiated rates for an echocardiogram across 30 Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach hospitals span a 65x range, from $51.57 at Holy Cross Hospital to $3,365.25 at HCA Florida Northwest Hospital. The lowest rates are often tied to Medicaid or Medicare plan types rather than commercial coverage. The median negotiated rate is $2,401.98.

Why the range is so wide: Cigna negotiates different rates for different plan types. Medicaid-managed and Medicare Advantage plans typically have the lowest negotiated rates. 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.

What a Cigna member can ask before a Miami echocardiogram. These are facility rates, and professional fees are billed separately. A member can ask:

Understanding Cigna Negotiated Rates

A negotiated rate is the price Cigna 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 Cigna plan types at each facility.

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