Novant Health Charlotte Orthopedic Hospital
Charlotte, NC
Novant Health Charlotte Orthopedic Hospital is a hospital in Charlotte, NC. It publishes prices for 43 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $15 to $2,820.
If you have Anthem insurance, this hospital's negotiated rate averages around $375—roughly 40% less than what UnitedHealthcare or Humana members typically pay here. That's a meaningful difference, especially if your procedure qualifies for outpatient pricing. If you have other coverage, the rates vary widely; what your plan actually pays depends on your specific contract, and that number isn't always obvious until you call. This hospital specializes in orthopedics, so if your procedure is joint or bone-related, it's designed for what you need—but make sure your insurance covers it before you assume anything.
Call the billing department and tell them your insurance plan and the specific procedure your doctor recommended. Ask them for three numbers: what they bill your insurance (the gross charge), what your plan's negotiated rate is, and your out-of-pocket estimate based on your deductible and copay. If you're uninsured or underinsured, ask about cash pricing—they average around $968 for procedures they track, but your specific procedure may not be in that average, so get your own quote.

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.
