Inova Mount Vernon Hospital is a 3-star nonprofit hospital in Alexandria, VA, part of the Inova Health System health system. It publishes prices for 60 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $10 to $18,773. 67.0% of patients rated this hospital 9 or 10 out of 10.

If you're considering Inova Mount Vernon for your procedure, know that their gross charges to insurance run about double their cash price—which is typical for this market. If your procedure isn't urgent and you have other options nearby, that's worth factoring in. For non-emergency care scheduled in advance, this matters less.

Before you book, call their billing department and ask for the cash price specific to your procedure—that's usually 40–50% less than what insurance gets billed. If cost is a concern, ask about their financial assistance program; they have one available for people earning up to 400% of the federal poverty line, and many eligible patients never apply. Get those numbers in writing before your procedure date.
