Outpatient: lowest $101.70, median $468.60, highest $496.00 — a 4.9× difference within the same market.

Both sides : lowest $744.00, median $744.00, highest $744.00.

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.

As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 3 facilities here, median $468.60. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.

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 collarbone X-ray takes pictures of the clavicle, the bone between the breastbone and the shoulder. It is ordered after a fall onto the shoulder or an outstretched arm, a common cause of a broken collarbone.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers taking the X-ray. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
