Before you schedule

Virginia average $14,080 — prices near Fairfax are below 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 knee arthroscopy with meniscectomy in Fairfax, the cash price can swing wildly — from around $1,900 to over $9,200 depending on which facility you choose. That five-fold difference means the hospital you pick could cost you thousands out of pocket, especially if you're uninsured or have a high deductible. This isn't about quality variation; it's about billing practices and what each facility negotiates with its local payers.

Before you book, call the billing department at any hospital you're considering and ask specifically for the cash price for your procedure — don't accept "it depends on insurance." Ask whether they offer a discount if you pay upfront, and confirm what's actually included (facility, surgeon, anesthesia, imaging). If cost is a real barrier, ask about financial assistance; some facilities will work with you if your income qualifies. Getting three quotes takes maybe 30 minutes and could save you thousands.

Questions to ask when you call

"What is your cash price for Knee Arthroscopy with Meniscectomy?"

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.
