Virginia average $842 — prices near Chesapeake 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

If you're shopping for a transvaginal ultrasound in Chesapeake, you're in luck: the cash prices here are well below what you'd pay elsewhere in Virginia. Most facilities charge between $544 and $584 for this procedure, compared to the state average of $904. That means even if you're uninsured or paying out of pocket, you're looking at roughly $350 to $360 less than typical. The spread between the lowest and highest price is about 2.2 times, so there's real variation—but even the pricier options in your area are reasonable.

Before you book, call the radiology or ultrasound department at whichever hospital your doctor recommends and ask directly for the cash price for a transvaginal ultrasound. Get it in writing if you can. If cost is a major concern and you qualify as low-income, ask whether the hospital offers financial assistance—some do, and many people who qualify never ask. Your insurance coverage may also matter here, so verify your copay or coinsurance with your plan first.

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 Transvaginal?"

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.
