Before you schedule
You're looking at a wide range of cash prices for this ultrasound in Norfolk—from about $544 up to $1,220—which means where you go matters. The two main Sentara hospitals are charging around $584 for this procedure, which is well below the state average of $904 and at the lower end of what's available locally. That's your advantage: if you have the flexibility to schedule at either Sentara Leigh or Sentara Norfolk General, you're likely looking at a meaningful savings compared to other options in the area.
Before you book, call the billing department at your preferred hospital and confirm they'll honor that cash price if you're self-pay or have a high deductible—some facilities quote differently depending on insurance status. Ask specifically: "What's the total cash price for a transvaginal ultrasound, and does that include the radiologist's reading?" That one question will lock in what you actually owe and prevent surprise bills later.
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 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.
"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.
