Before you schedule
You're looking at screening mammography in Arlington, and the price range here is striking: the same procedure costs as little as $346 cash or as much as $1,034 depending on where you go—that's nearly a threefold difference for the exact same test. Most facilities cluster around the lower end, but you could easily pay three times more if you don't shop. Since screening mammography is preventive care, your insurance may cover it fully, but if you're uninsured or have a high deductible, the facility you choose will matter enormously to your out-of-pocket cost.
Call the imaging department at any facility on your list and ask directly for the cash price for screening mammography—don't rely on online quotes, which can be vague. Once you have a few prices, ask your insurance company whether they cover it at 100 percent or if you'll owe anything out of pocket. If cost is your main concern and your insurance covers it fully, any facility works; if you're paying cash or meeting a deductible, the $346 facilities will save you hundreds compared to the higher-priced ones.
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.
