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.
What it is
This is open surgery to remove a breast lump, such as a cyst, fibroadenoma or other growth, through a cut in the skin. It covers removing one or more lesions in the same breast and is done for both women and men.
