Cash or insurance?

At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is 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 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.
