Before you schedule

Best value UVA Health Haymarket Medical Center — $78 4★ CMS rating
You could save $277 by choosing the lowest-priced facility
Virginia average $123 — prices near Alexandria 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

A ferritin level test in Alexandria ranges from $78 to $355 depending on where you go — that's a 4.6x difference for the exact same blood test. Most facilities charge around $135, so you're potentially looking at a choice between a bargain price and one that's nearly three times higher. Since this is a simple lab draw, the quality of the test result doesn't vary; what changes is the markup and facility overhead. If your doctor hasn't specified where you need this done, you have real room to shop.

Before you schedule, call your insurance company and ask what they'll cover at each lab in town — some facilities may be out-of-network for your plan, which could cost you more out-of-pocket than others. Then call the billing department at whichever labs are in-network and confirm their cash price if you're planning to self-pay or have a high deductible. Ask if they offer financial assistance based on income; many labs qualify patients for discounts. This one test isn't worth a lot of money either way, but the habit of comparing is worth building.

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 Ferritin Level?"

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.
