Before you schedule

Virginia average $104 — prices near Roanoke 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

Right now, you're looking at a lipid panel in Roanoke, and the price you'll pay depends almost entirely on where you go—your costs could range from $4 to $129 depending on the facility. That's a 32-fold difference for the same test. Carilion Medical Center charges $109.80 for a cash price, which is slightly above Virginia's state average of $100. Before you schedule, call Carilion's lab directly and ask if that $109.80 quote includes all associated fees, or if there are draw fees or other charges added on. You should also ask if your insurance covers lipid panels with a copay—sometimes the copay is cheaper than paying cash, and your primary care office may have a lab partner that costs less.

Your other move is to check whether your doctor requires this test at a hospital lab or if they'll accept results from an independent lab like Quest or LabCorp, which often charge $10–40 for a lipid panel. If your doctor approves an outside lab, that's usually your lowest-cost option. Don't let the test date pressure you into the most expensive choice—lipid panels are routine, and you have time to make a few quick calls and save real money.

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 Lipid Panel?"

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.

Lipid Panel costs between $4 and $129 at 7 facilities near Roanoke, Virginia. The Virginia statewide average is $104.
