Before you schedule

Virginia average $454 — prices near Richmond are above average
Call billing before you schedule Ask: "What is the cash price for this procedure?" — if you haven't met your deductible, it may be hundreds less than going through insurance
Expect a separate bill These are facility fees. Your doctor, radiologist, or anesthesiologist bills separately — ask about those costs too

If you're getting a chest X-ray in Richmond, the price you'll be quoted can swing wildly depending on which hospital you choose — anywhere from $106 to $1,119 for the same two-view image. That's roughly a tenfold difference. Most Richmond hospitals are charging around $934, which is more than double the state average of $423. Before you schedule, ask your doctor if they have a preference between facilities, because that choice alone could save you hundreds of dollars out of pocket.

Call the hospital's billing department and ask specifically for the cash price for a chest X-ray with two views — don't rely on what you find online, since pricing can vary. If your insurance plan requires you to pay a percentage of the bill rather than a flat copay, knowing the cash price helps you estimate your actual cost. Once you have that number, you'll know whether to shop around or stick with your doctor's recommended location.

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.

1

"What is your cash price for Chest X-Ray 2 Views?"

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.

2

"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.

3

"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.
