Before you schedule
If you're paying out of pocket for this ultrasound, where you go matters a lot — prices in Alexandria range from $867 to over $3,200, nearly a fourfold difference. The good news is that two INOVA hospitals (Alexandria and Mount Vernon) are both pricing this scan at $867, which is well below the state average of $1,314. That's your lowest option in the area, and INOVA Alexandria has stronger patient ratings at 70 percent. Before scheduling, call the billing department at whichever INOVA location is most convenient and confirm the $867 cash price applies to your specific situation — labs and facility codes can sometimes shift the final bill.
You should also ask directly whether they offer financial assistance if $867 is still difficult right now; many patients qualify and never ask. If you have insurance, get your benefits details handy when you call — your deductible, coinsurance, and whether you need prior authorization will determine what you actually owe regardless of the sticker price.
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 Ultrasound Abdomen Complete?"
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.
