Cash or insurance?
At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is not 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 limited limb ultrasound looks at one area of an arm or leg, such as a lump, a tendon, a cyst behind the knee or fluid in a joint. It is not a vein or artery study.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers the ultrasound. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
