Cash or insurance?

At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated. If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you usually pay your plan's negotiated rate, which falls somewhere in the "Insurers pay" column. Paying cash can cost less, but a cash payment usually does not count toward your deductible. Ask the hospital for both numbers before you book.

This code covers closing a simple cut with stitches, staples or glue when the total length is 2.6 to 7.5 cm (about 1 to 3 inches) on the scalp, neck, body, arms or legs.

It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 12002 ($324.90). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
