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.

Before you schedule
You're looking at echocardiograms in Arlington, and here's what matters: the cash prices for this same procedure swing wildly—from around $1,400 to over $7,000 depending on which hospital you choose. That's a five-fold difference for the exact same test. Even if you have insurance, your out-of-pocket cost could vary by hundreds of dollars based on your deductible and coinsurance. Before you book anywhere, you need to know what YOUR specific hospital will charge you under your plan.
Call the billing department at whichever hospital your cardiologist recommends and ask for two numbers: the gross charges they bill to your insurance and the cash price if you self-pay. Don't book until you have both. If cost is a major factor, ask whether any of the other nine hospitals in Arlington are in-network for you—the savings could be substantial enough to make the trip worthwhile.
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 Echocardiogram Complete?"
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.
