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

Best value Chesapeake General Hospital — $61 3★ CMS rating
You could save $68 by choosing the lowest-priced facility
Virginia average $125 — prices near Hampton 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

You're looking at ferritin level testing in Hampton, and here's what matters most: the same lab test costs more than double depending on where you get it — your cash price could range from around $61 to $129. That's a real difference when you're paying out of pocket or have a high deductible. Since this is a straightforward blood test, you have genuine flexibility to shop around, which you don't always have with procedures.

Before you schedule, call the lab or billing department at your doctor's preferred location and ask for the cash price for a ferritin level test — don't assume it's the median price in Hampton. If that quote is over $100, ask your doctor if any of the other labs in town can run the same test, then call those facilities for their cash prices. The $60 difference between cheapest and most expensive is worth five minutes of phone time.

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 Ferritin Level?"

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.
