Before you schedule
If you're scheduling chemotherapy infusion in Richmond, you need to know that the cash price for your first hour can swing from about $690 to over $2,600 depending on which facility you choose — nearly a fourfold difference. That gap is unusually wide for this procedure, which means your choice of hospital genuinely affects what you'll pay out of pocket. Before you settle on a facility, call the billing department at each hospital and ask specifically for their cash price for chemotherapy infusion's first hour. That number matters because it's what you'd owe if you're uninsured or paying before insurance kicks in.
Once you have those prices, ask each billing office two things: whether they offer a prompt-pay discount (some hospitals reduce the price if you pay upfront), and whether you qualify for financial assistance based on your income. Don't assume you won't qualify — many people do. If your oncologist hasn't given you a strong reason to use one specific hospital, you have real leverage to choose based on what each one actually costs you.
Questions to ask when you call
Before scheduling, call the hospital's billing department. These are the exact questions that get you the answers you need.
"What is your cash price for Chemotherapy Infusion First Hour?"
If you haven't met your deductible, the cash price may be lower than what your insurance negotiates. Many hospitals will honor their published cash price if you ask.
"What will my insurance plan pay for this, and what's my out-of-pocket?"
Get a written estimate. Ask them to include your deductible status and coinsurance percentage. This is called a "Good Faith Estimate" and you're legally entitled to one.
"Are there any other charges I should expect — radiologist, anesthesiologist, or facility fees?"
These prices are facility fees. Your doctor, radiologist, and anesthesiologist bill separately. Ask how much those could add.
