North Carolina average $120 — prices near Charlotte 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

PSA screening in Charlotte is straightforward from a pricing angle — all six hospitals in the area charge the same cash price of $136, so you won't save money by shopping around. This is actually good news: it means you can choose based on convenience and which facility works with your insurance plan, rather than spending time comparing costs. The price here is slightly above North Carolina's average, but the difference is small enough that it shouldn't be your main decision-making factor.

Before you schedule, call your insurance company to confirm whether PSA screening is covered under preventive care at no cost to you — many plans cover it fully for men over 40 or 50. If you're uninsured or your plan requires you to pay, confirm the $136 cash price directly with the hospital's lab when you book. Ask which Charlotte location is most convenient for you, since several hospitals offer this test and your only real choice is logistics.

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 PSA Prostate Screening?"

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.
