Before you book
These prices are published by the clinic (not from a hospital file) and were checked against the clinic's own page on Oct 1, 2026. Call to confirm the price and ask what it includes — for imaging, whether the radiologist's reading is billed separately. The clinic's price is a package that includes the surgeon and anesthesia, as listed above. A hospital's cash price for the same code is often only the hospital's own charge, with the surgeon and anesthesiologist billing separately, so the full hospital bill is usually higher than the median shown. As a self-pay patient you can ask any clinic for a Good Faith Estimate in writing before a scheduled service. Hospital prices in the table are medians of the hospitals' own cash prices for the same code: in the clinic's metro area when at least three hospitals there list it, otherwise in the state or the whole country.
