Cash or insurance?
At 1 of 3 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at none is it 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
A hysteroscopy passes a thin camera through the cervix to look inside the uterus; in this version the doctor also takes a sample of the lining and/or removes polyps. It is used to investigate abnormal bleeding or findings on an ultrasound.
What the price covers
The facility price covers the procedure room and recovery. The gynecologist, anesthesia and the pathology exam of the tissue are usually billed separately.
