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.

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.
