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 complete wrist X-ray takes at least three pictures of the wrist from different angles to show the forearm ends and the small wrist bones. It is commonly ordered after a fall on an outstretched hand to check for a fracture.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers taking the X-ray of one wrist. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
