Cash or insurance?
At 15 of 15 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at 1 it is 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 diagnostic mammogram of one breast is an X-ray exam done to check a specific concern, such as a lump, pain, nipple discharge or an unclear result on a screening mammogram. It usually takes more images than a screening exam.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers the imaging, including computer-aided detection when used. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately, and 3D mammography (tomosynthesis) or a follow-up ultrasound is billed under other codes.
