Lewisgale Medical Center is a 2-star for-profit hospital in Salem, VA, part of the HCA Virginia health system. It publishes prices for 37 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $81 to $13,740. 57.0% of patients rated this hospital 9 or 10 out of 10.
If you have Anthem, Virginia Health Network, or Aetna, your negotiated rate at Lewisgale could be significantly higher than what uninsured patients pay — we're seeing a roughly 50 to 70 percent markup between their cash price and what those plans are charged. That gap matters most if you're weighing whether to use this hospital versus one nearby. UnitedHealthcare negotiates closer to the cash price, so your out-of-pocket costs depend heavily on which insurance you carry. Before you schedule, call the hospital's billing department and ask for your specific procedure's cash price and what your insurance plan is contracted to pay — those two numbers will tell you exactly what your responsibility is.
Lewisgale does offer charity care if you qualify based on income; they've directed over $6.8 million to patients in recent years. If cost is a real concern, ask billing whether you'd qualify before your procedure — many people don't realize they can apply.
