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 $397 — 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

If you're comparing spirometry tests in Norfolk, your cash price could range from $135 to $326 depending which facility you choose—that's more than double the difference between the cheapest and most expensive option. Since this is a straightforward screening test with a quick turnaround, price shopping here actually makes sense: you could save real money without compromising your care or waiting longer than you would elsewhere.

Before you schedule, call the billing department at whichever hospital is convenient and ask for their cash price for spirometry—don't assume their gross charges tell you what you'll actually pay. Then ask if they offer financial assistance if cost is a concern, since some do. Given the wide range in this market, it's worth spending 15 minutes on the phone to confirm pricing rather than just booking based on your doctor's referral.

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.
