Cash or insurance?
At 2 of 3 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at none is it 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 detailed fetal anatomy scan is an in-depth ultrasound that checks the baby's organs and body structures one by one. It is usually done around 18 to 22 weeks, often by a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, when there is a higher risk or a concern from an earlier scan.
What the price covers
The price usually covers the detailed exam. The specialist's reading may be billed separately, and it is often not part of a global maternity package.
