Minnesota law (Minn. Stat. §144.589): a hospital may not charge an uninsured patient whose household income is under $125,000 more than the lowest amount it would be paid for the same service by a private insurer, counting the insured patient's share. If the cash price below is higher, ask the billing office to apply this limit. Each hospital's page here shows the range of insurer rates in its own file (the "Insurers pay" column), a starting point when you ask. Other states' laws.

Removing a mole or other skin growth is billed by the method and the size and location of the spot. Cutting out a lesion (excision) costs more than shaving, freezing or burning it off, and lesions on the face cost more than those on the body. Anything that might be cancer is sent to a lab, which is a separate charge.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Dermatology offices usually charge less than hospital outpatient departments for the same removal.
  • Ask whether the lab exam of the removed tissue (88305) is included; it is usually billed separately.
  • If the removal is cosmetic, insurance usually does not pay, so ask for the cash price up front.
