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
If you're paying out of pocket for a TSH thyroid test in Alexandria, the price you'll see can swing from about $83 to $162 depending on where you go — nearly double for the same test. Most hospitals here are charging the higher end of that range, closer to $162, which is about 75% more than the state average of $93. Before you schedule at any hospital, call their lab directly and ask for the cash price for a TSH test; you may find a clinic or urgent care in the area quoting something closer to $83, which would save you real money.
When you call, ask specifically whether they offer financial assistance if cost is a concern — many people qualify but don't know to ask. You should also confirm whether your insurance has already negotiated a rate with them, since your out-of-pocket cost depends on your plan details and deductible status. If you're uninsured or underinsured, it's worth checking a standalone lab or retail clinic option first, since they sometimes undercut hospital pricing significantly on routine tests.
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 TSH Thyroid 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.
"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.
