Before you schedule, call the imaging department directly and confirm the cash price matches what you see listed—sometimes prices shift between what's posted online and what billing confirms. If you have insurance, ask your plan's member services what your actual out-of-pocket cost will be, since many plans cover preventive screening mammography fully. If cost is still a concern and your household income is under about 200% of the federal poverty line, ask about financial assistance programs when you call to schedule.
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.
