Cash or insurance?
At 2 of 5 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at 1 it is 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 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.
