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 and below every plan's rate. 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 colonoscopy includes removing one or more polyps or other growths using a wire loop (snare). Polyps are removed because some can turn into colon cancer over time.

What the price covers

The facility price covers the procedure room and recovery. The gastroenterologist, anesthesia and the pathology exam of removed polyps are billed separately.
