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

Virginia average $435 — prices near Norfolk are below 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

You're looking at screening mammography in Norfolk, and the good news is prices here are actually tighter than the rest of Virginia—you're looking at somewhere between $372 and $415 for a cash price, with most facilities charging $415. That's about 12% variation across seven hospitals, which means you're not going to save huge money by shopping aggressively, but you also won't get blindsided by an outlier bill. The cash prices here run lower than the state average of $477, so Norfolk is a relatively affordable market for this screening.

Before you schedule, call the billing department at whichever hospital is most convenient for you and confirm the cash price for screening mammography—ask specifically if that includes the radiologist's reading fee. If you don't have insurance or have a high deductible, ask about financial assistance eligibility at the same time; many people qualify without realizing it. You can also call a second hospital just to verify their quoted price matches what's listed, since having a comparison takes two minutes and locks in your options.

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 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.

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.
