One side of the body : lowest $1,812.00, median $1,812.00, highest $1,812.00.

Both sides : lowest $1,812.00, median $1,812.00, highest $1,812.00.

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.

Cash or insurance?

At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is not 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

A transforaminal epidural injection places steroid and numbing medicine near a specific nerve root in the lower back, using X-ray or CT guidance. It is used for pain that travels down the leg (sciatica). This code covers one spinal level.

What the price covers

The price covers the injection at one level with imaging guidance. Each additional level is billed with an add-on code (64484), and the doctor's fee and medicine may be separate.
