Outpatient: lowest $407.40, median $1,659.32, highest $3,397.48 — a 8.3× difference within the same market.

As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 18 facilities here, median $1,287.36. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.

What it is

This upper endoscopy (EGD) looks at the esophagus, stomach and first part of the small intestine and takes one or more tissue samples (biopsies). Biopsies can check for things like H. pylori infection, celiac disease or abnormal cells.

What the price covers

The facility price covers the procedure room and recovery. The gastroenterologist, anesthesia and the pathologist's exam of the biopsy samples are usually billed separately.

2 rows held back from this comparison

They are priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 43239 ($1,467.98). 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.
