Before you schedule
If you're getting an echocardiogram in Hampton, price variation here is steep — your cash price could run anywhere from around $1,500 to nearly $4,000 depending on which facility you choose. That's a $2,500 difference for the same test. Sentara CarePoint Hospital sits right at the local median of $2,477, which is also close to Virginia's typical cash price, so you're looking at a middle-ground option here rather than a bargain or an outlier.
Before you schedule, call the billing department at whichever hospital you're considering and confirm the cash price for an echocardiogram — tell them this is for self-pay, not insurance. If you have insurance, also ask whether your plan has in-network rates that differ from the cash price posted here. Then, if cost is a factor, phone one or two of the lower-priced facilities on this list to see if their quality ratings or your doctor's preferences matter enough to justify the difference.
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.
