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.

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 paying out of pocket for physical therapy manual therapy in Charlotte, you have a real price choice: the Atrium Health locations charge $43 per session, while Novant Health facilities charge $66.50—a difference of about 55 percent. That $23.50 gap adds up quickly if your therapist recommends multiple sessions. The Atrium locations have slightly lower patient satisfaction ratings (66–72 percent) compared to some Novant options, but this is one of the few times where the cheaper option isn't obviously worse, so it's worth evaluating both on proximity and your insurance coverage before deciding.

Before you schedule, call the facility's billing office and confirm that $43 or $66.50 is their actual cash price for your specific session type—your therapist may recommend different techniques that affect the final bill. If you have insurance, ask whether they've negotiated a lower rate than the cash price at either network. Many people qualify for financial assistance programs even with insurance, so ask directly whether your income makes you eligible; you won't find that information online.

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 Physical Therapy Manual Therapy?"

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?"

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.
