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
Your biggest advantage in Alexandria is price consistency—most facilities charge around $345 to $350 for screening mammography, which is below the Virginia state average of $477. However, a few outliers charge nearly three times that amount, so if you're paying cash or have a high deductible, you'll want to confirm the exact price before scheduling. INOVA Alexandria Hospital offers the lowest cash price at $345.50 and has a slightly higher patient satisfaction rating (70%) than its sister facility, making it a solid choice if you're weighing cost and experience together.
Before you book, call the imaging department directly at your chosen hospital and ask them to confirm the cash price for screening mammography—don't rely on online quotes alone, since some facilities quote different prices depending on whether you're insured or self-pay. If cost is your main concern and you're uninsured or underinsured, ask whether the hospital offers financial assistance; nonprofits like INOVA are required to have programs available, and you may qualify even if you think you won't.
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 Screening Mammography?"
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.
