Ultrasound Cost in Lakeland-Winter Haven, FL

An ultrasound uses a handheld device called a transducer, moved over the skin with gel, to send high-frequency sound waves into the body and produce real-time images on a screen. The hospital facility fee covers the equipment, the technologist's time, the exam room and supplies, and the images produced for a physician to review. This page lists facility prices for two billing codes: 76700 (Abdominal Ultrasound, Complete) and 76856 (Pelvic Ultrasound, Complete). All figures come from the price transparency files that CMS requires hospitals to publish, covering 5 hospitals and 10 price rows in the Lakeland-Winter Haven area.

Scope note: These are hospital facility fees only. Standalone imaging centers (not hospitals) often charge significantly less for outpatient imaging but are not covered by the CMS Hospital Price Transparency Rule, so they are not included in this data. We currently track only hospital-published prices.

What These Prices Mean

How the three price types compare
The gross charge is a hospital's full list price before any discount. The cash price is what a self-pay patient is quoted, and the insured range shows the negotiated rates published for health plans. Here, gross charges run from $1,470 at Bartow Regional Medical Center (76856) to $3,511.87 at AdventHealth Lake Wales (76700). Cash prices differ more: AdventHealth Heart of Florida and AdventHealth Lake Wales publish cash equal to gross, so cash is 100% of gross there. Bartow Regional Medical Center and Winter Haven Hospital show cash at 60% of gross on the rows with a published gross, and Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center shows cash at 20% of gross. People on a high-deductible plan who have not met the deductible usually pay the plan's negotiated rate, so the insured range is the relevant column for them.

Abdominal and pelvic codes side by side
Code 76700 covers a complete abdominal ultrasound and 76856 covers a complete pelvic ultrasound. At AdventHealth Heart of Florida both codes carry a gross charge of $1,511.66. At AdventHealth Lake Wales the abdominal code lists $3,511.87 and the pelvic code lists $1,587.24. At Bartow Regional Medical Center the cash prices are $1,218 for 76700 and $882 for 76856. At Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center they are $452 and $340. One row, Winter Haven Hospital 76856, has no published gross charge, which is missing data.

Why Ultrasound Prices Vary

Differences between hospitals and systems
Cash prices on this page span from $46.20 at Winter Haven Hospital (76856) to $3,511.87 at AdventHealth Lake Wales (76700). Setting aside the two hospitals whose cash equals gross, the range runs from $46.20 to $1,218 at Bartow Regional Medical Center (76700), and the highest is about 26x the lowest. Gross charges vary far less, with the highest about 2x the lowest. The three systems handle discounts differently. AdventHealth's two hospitals publish no self-pay discount. The two BayCare Health System hospitals show cash at 60% of gross where gross is published, while Lakeland Regional Health shows cash at 20% of gross. At Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center, cash of $452 for 76700 sits below the insured range of $889 to $1,690, while at AdventHealth Heart of Florida cash of $1,511.66 sits above insured rates of up to $326.50.

Other facilities and plan-to-plan spread
Outpatient imaging centers and other facilities outside this dataset may price the same exams differently, and their prices are not shown here. The payer table for Winter Haven Hospital (76856) lists 239 published rates, from $13.86 for Medicare HMO plans from Molina and Simply Healthcare to $1,470 for several commercial plans. The highest is about 106x the lowest, so the plan matters at least as much as the hospital.

Paying cash? Health insurance could lower your Ultrasound cost.

Published cash prices on this page range from $46.20 to $3,511.87 (including hospitals that publish cash equal to gross charge, marked with * in the table). The lowest insured rate in the price table is $13.86 (Winter Haven Hospital). Insured rates depend on the plan, and the lowest are often Medicaid, CHIP or Medicare Advantage plans, so they may not reflect what a commercial or marketplace plan pays. If you are uninsured, a marketplace health plan could reduce your out-of-pocket cost for this procedure.

What to Do With These Ultrasound Prices

Which scan, which number. This page covers two exams: 76700 (abdominal, complete) and 76856 (pelvic, complete). Ask the ordering office for the exact CPT code, and whether the order is with or without contrast, since that can change the code. Then call the hospital's billing office, quote the code, and ask for its cash or self-pay price and an itemized estimate.

Cash versus insured, at the same hospital. The two can point in opposite directions. At Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center, the 76700 cash price of $452 sits below the insured rates there, which start at $889. At AdventHealth Heart of Florida, cash for both codes is $1,511.66, above the insured rates there, which top out at $326.50. If your quote matches the gross charge, no discount was applied. Ask whether the insured rate would apply instead, and whether the cash price counts toward your deductible.

Two bills, not one. The prices here are the hospital (technical) charge only. The radiologist who reads the images usually bills separately, and that fee is not on this page. When statements arrive, check:

  • Which bill is the facility fee and which is the reading fee.
  • That the code on each bill matches the exam you were quoted.
  • That the exam is not listed twice.

What is and is not in the data. Every row here has a published cash price and a gross charge, so no $0 or blank figures are hiding free services. Outpatient and freestanding imaging centers are not included and may price the same exam differently, so ask them for quotes using the same code.

Financial assistance and discounts. Nonprofit hospitals are required to publish a financial assistance policy, and the billing office can send it with an application. Some hospitals also offer prompt-pay or self-pay discounts; these vary by hospital and are not included in this data. If you are uninsured or not using insurance for scheduled care, you can ask the provider for a good faith estimate before the appointment.

What Patients Ask About Ultrasound Costs

How much does a ultrasound cost without insurance in Lakeland-Winter Haven?

Cash prices for an ultrasound on this page run from $46.20 at Winter Haven Hospital (76856) to $3,511.87 at AdventHealth Lake Wales (76700). Excluding the two hospitals that publish cash equal to gross, the range is $46.20 to $1,218 at Bartow Regional Medical Center (76700). Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center lists $452 for abdominal and $340 for pelvic. All 10 rows have a published cash price, though one row lacks a gross charge. These are facility prices only. Professional fees, such as a physician's interpretation of the images, are usually billed separately.

Why is the gross charge so much higher than the cash price?

The gross charge is a full list price that few patients are billed at, while the cash price reflects a self-pay discount where a hospital publishes one. On this page, Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center shows cash at 20% of gross, and Bartow Regional Medical Center and Winter Haven Hospital show cash at 60% of gross where gross is published. AdventHealth Heart of Florida and AdventHealth Lake Wales publish cash at 100% of gross, so no discount appears. For example, Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center lists a gross of $2,262 and a cash price of $452 for 76700.

Does insurance cover a ultrasound?

Whether an ultrasound is covered depends on your specific plan, so the plan's own materials or your insurer are the source for coverage questions. The published negotiated rates on this page range from $13.86 at Winter Haven Hospital (76856) to $2,030 at Bartow Regional Medical Center (76700). At AdventHealth Heart of Florida the insured range is $109.17 to $326.50. If you have a high-deductible plan and have not met your deductible, you usually pay the plan's negotiated rate rather than a fixed copay.

Are there additional fees beyond the ultrasound facility charge?

Yes. The facility charge on this page covers the hospital's equipment, staff and space. A separate professional fee from the physician who reads and interprets the images is typically billed on its own, often by a radiology group. Some visits also generate a separate bill from the ordering provider's office, and sometimes charges for supplies or other services on the same date. Insurance plans may apply deductibles, copays or coinsurance to each bill separately. An itemized bill or a written estimate shows which charges are included.

How much does an abdominal ultrasound cost at Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center?

Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center lists a gross charge of $2,262 and a cash price of $452 for a complete abdominal ultrasound (76700), which is 20% of gross. Its insured rates run from $889 to $1,690. These are facility charges only, not including separate physician or radiologist billing.

What is the highest ultrasound price published in Lakeland-Winter Haven?

The highest price on this page is $3,511.87 for a complete abdominal ultrasound (76700) at AdventHealth Lake Wales, where the cash price equals the gross charge. Excluding hospitals whose cash equals gross, the highest cash price is $1,218 at Bartow Regional Medical Center. All figures are facility charges only.

What does Florida Blue pay for an ultrasound at Lakeland and Winter Haven hospitals?

Florida Blue rates on this page run from $24.60 at Winter Haven Hospital to $1,690 at Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center, with a median of $847.16 across 5 hospitals. The highest is about 69x the lowest. These are facility rates only, and actual billing can vary by plan.
