What this price typically doesn't include

Procedure codes generally cover the procedure itself. Other services that often appear on the same bill are listed under separate codes — for example:

Anesthesia (CPT 00xxx)
Pathology, if a sample is taken (CPT 88xxx)
Drugs administered during the visit (J-codes)
Facility vs. professional split — one charge from the hospital, another from the doctor
Room and board, if the procedure is inpatient

Asking what other codes might appear on the bill is a useful follow-up so the total is not a surprise. Once you receive the bill, asking for an itemized statement listing each service code separately makes it easier to match against the disclosed prices above.
