One side of the body : lowest $50.00, median $982.32, highest $982.32 — a 19.6× difference within the same market.

Both sides : lowest $50.00, median $50.00, highest $50.00.

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 outpatient, the same code is billed by 4 facilities here, median $534.16 — that is the price to compare if you are not being admitted.

What it is

A hip X-ray takes two or three pictures of one hip joint, sometimes with a view of the pelvis. It is ordered for hip pain, a suspected fracture after a fall, or to check arthritis before or after hip replacement.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers taking the images of one hip. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
