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 getting a TSH test in Hampton, you're in a good position price-wise. The cheapest option here is $18.50, which is less than a quarter of what the same test costs elsewhere in Virginia. Most facilities in town cluster around that low price, so unless you're at one of the outliers charging over $160, you're likely paying what's reasonable. Before you schedule, call your doctor's office or the lab directly and ask for the cash price for a TSH test — you'll almost certainly get something close to that $18.50 figure, especially if you're uninsured or want to avoid your insurance deductible.
Here's what to do: first, confirm whether your doctor's office has a preferred lab, since they often do and it saves time. If not, ask the facility upfront whether that quoted cash price includes everything or if there are add-on charges. If you have insurance, compare what they'd charge you out-of-pocket versus the cash price — sometimes the cash discount is better than your copay. Don't let this sit; TSH tests are usually quick to schedule and results come back fast.
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.
