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
Right now, you're looking at prostate biopsy pricing in Newport News, and here's what matters most: all three hospitals in your area charge the same cash price of $2,419 for this procedure. That means you don't have a pricing advantage by shopping around locally—what you save depends on whether you can negotiate directly with the hospital or whether your insurance coverage kicks in. If you're uninsured or have a high deductible, your next move is calling each hospital's billing department to ask what financial assistance they offer; many people qualify for discounts based on income and never ask.
Before you schedule anywhere, get three pieces of information: call the hospital billing office and confirm the $2,419 cash price applies to your specific situation, ask whether they have a financial assistance program and what income threshold qualifies you, and check with your insurance company about what they'll actually pay after your deductible. If cost is your main concern and you don't have coverage, asking about a cash discount upfront—sometimes hospitals will negotiate below their listed price—takes two minutes and could save you hundreds.
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 Prostate Biopsy?"
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.
"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.
"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.
