Inpatient: lowest $2,787.00, median $2,787.00, highest $2,787.00.

Both sides : lowest $4,180.00, median $4,180.00, highest $4,180.00.

The two groups are not comparable and are not averaged together: a price for both sides of the body covers twice the work. Merging them is how a single published "median" ends up far above what one side actually costs.

As an outpatient, the same code is billed by 1 facility here, median $2,787.00 — that is the price to compare if you are not being admitted.

What it is

In this biopsy a needle guided by ultrasound takes tissue samples from a breast lump or area of concern, and a tiny marker clip is placed at the site. It is usually done after an abnormal mammogram or breast ultrasound.

What the price covers

The price covers the biopsy of the first lesion with ultrasound guidance and the clip. The pathologist's exam is billed separately, and a follow-up mammogram to check the clip position may also be billed separately.
