Before you schedule

Best value Sentara Princess Anne Hospital — $604 4★ CMS rating
You could save $53 by choosing the lowest-priced facility
Virginia average $847 — 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

You're looking at pregnancy ultrasounds in Norfolk, and the good news is prices are tightly clustered here—you're looking at roughly $605 to $657 for a cash price across the hospitals offering it, which is noticeably lower than the Virginia state average of about $923. That's a real difference if you're paying out of pocket or have a high deductible. The variation between facilities is only about 10 percent, so you're not going to save hundreds by shopping around; your choice can focus more on convenience and where your doctor refers you.

Before you book, call the billing department at your preferred hospital and confirm the $605–$657 range applies to your specific ultrasound type (some pregnancy scans involve extra imaging). If you're uninsured or underinsured, ask whether they offer financial assistance based on your household income—many don't advertise it but do have programs. Get the exact out-of-pocket cost in writing so there are no surprises on the bill.

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 Ultrasound Pregnancy?"

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.
