It is used for reflux, trouble swallowing, ulcers and bleeding. A biopsy is common and changes the code; the lab exam of the tissue, the doctor and sedation are usually billed separately.

Paying cash: what to do
- Ask for one price that covers the facility, doctor, sedation and pathology.
- Freestanding endoscopy centers usually charge much less than hospitals.
- If you also need a colonoscopy, ask whether both can be done in one visit to save on facility and sedation fees.
