Inpatient: lowest $50.00, median $412.63, highest $412.63 — a 8.3× difference within the same market.

Both sides : lowest $50.00, median $161.30, highest $272.60 — a 5.5× difference within the same market.

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 $249.32 — that is the price to compare if you are not being admitted.

What it is

A complete ankle X-ray takes at least three pictures of the ankle from different angles to show the bones and joint. It is commonly ordered after a twisted ankle or fall to check for a fracture.

What the price covers

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