Before you schedule
If you're shopping for a PSA screening in Newport News, expect a wide range in what you'll actually pay: the lowest cash price is around $26, but the highest is over $112 — more than four times as much for the same test. That gap matters because this is a straightforward lab procedure, and the variation usually reflects different facility overhead rather than a difference in quality or what you're getting. Your out-of-pocket cost could easily swing by $80 depending on where you schedule, so it's worth a few phone calls before you book.
Call the billing department at two or three facilities and ask for the cash price for your PSA test — don't rely on their websites. If you have insurance, also ask whether your deductible has been met this year and what your coinsurance will be. If cost is tight, mention your household income when you call; some facilities here offer financial assistance for people below certain thresholds, and many eligible people never ask.
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 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.
"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.
