Before you schedule
If you're getting an abdominal ultrasound in Hampton, shop around — the price you pay can swing wildly depending on which hospital you choose. The lowest cash price here is $623, but the highest is nearly $1,976, which means some facilities charge more than three times what others do for the same scan. Sentara CarePlex is right in the middle at $869 cash price and has a solid 4-star quality rating, but that doesn't mean it's your best option financially.
Before you schedule anywhere, call the billing department of at least two hospitals and ask for their cash price for a complete abdominal ultrasound — you'll likely find real savings if you're willing to make one extra call. If cost is tight, ask whether they offer financial assistance based on your household income; many people qualify but don't know to ask. Once you have prices and understand what your insurance will cover, you'll have real numbers to decide on.
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.
