Cash prices New York Outpatient

Blood test cost in New York without insurance

In New York, the median cash price for Comprehensive metabolic panel is $58.37 across 114 hospitals, from $10.00 to $659.00. The lowest is at Kenmore Mercy Hospital (Kenmore) and 3 other hospitals. The US median is $120.25.

New York law (Public Health Law §2807-k(9-a), as amended in October 2024): uninsured patients with income below 200% of the federal poverty level owe nothing for emergency and medically necessary hospital care; up to 400% they pay on a sliding scale of at most 10% or 20% of what Medicaid would pay. Emergency care is covered for New York residents, other care for people living in the hospital's service area; immigration status does not count. Ask for the Uniform Hospital Financial Assistance form. Other states' laws.

Blood tests are among the easiest services to compare, because a code means the same measurement at any lab. The listed price covers running the test; the blood draw (36415) and the visit where the test was ordered are usually billed separately, and hospital labs often charge more than independent labs for the same code.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Ask for the self-pay price of each test code on the order plus the draw fee, since panels and single tests are priced separately.
  • Compare an independent lab's cash price with the hospital lab's; you can usually take the same order to either.
  • Ask whether any test on the order will be sent to an outside reference lab, which can mean a separate bill.
