Wythe County Community Hospital is a 4-star for-profit hospital in Wytheville, VA. It publishes prices for 78 common procedures, with cash prices ranging from $17 to $25,446. 73.0% of patients rated this hospital 9 or 10 out of 10.
You're looking at a small community hospital that doesn't inflate its prices much for insured patients—their gross charges are basically the same as their cash price (a markup ratio of 1.0x), which is unusual and good for you. Where it gets complicated is your insurance plan: if you have Optima Health, you could see gross charges above $10,000 for the same procedure that costs $4,571 cash or $2,430 with Virginia Health Network. That gap matters, so before you schedule, call the hospital billing department and ask what your specific plan will be charged for your procedure, not just the average.
Once you know your plan's rate, compare it to the cash price option—paying out-of-pocket might save you thousands depending on your deductible and coverage. The hospital does provide financial assistance (they've given away roughly $390,000 in recent years), so if cost is the main barrier, ask whether you qualify; they don't publicly list income thresholds, but it's worth asking when you call.
