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

North Carolina average $347 — prices near High Point 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

If you're getting a spirometry test done in High Point, your cash price will likely fall somewhere between $149 and $223 depending on which facility you choose — that's a 50 percent spread, which means calling ahead could genuinely save you money. Most places in your area charge around $178 cash, but without knowing which hospital your doctor prefers, you won't know if you're on the lower or higher end until you ask. Since spirometry is a straightforward screening test, there's no quality or convenience reason to automatically pick the most expensive option.

Before you schedule, call your doctor's office and ask which facility they typically send patients to — then contact that hospital's billing department and ask for the cash price for spirometry specifically. If your doctor hasn't specified a preference, ask if any of the four local options work equally well for them, then call two or three to compare. You'll probably find at least a $50 difference, and some facilities offer financial assistance if you qualify based on income, so it's worth asking about that too when you call.

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 Spirometry Pulmonary Function Test?"

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.
