Cash or insurance?
At 2 of 2 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
The obstetric panel is a group of blood tests done early in pregnancy. It includes a complete blood count, blood type and Rh factor, a red blood cell antibody screen, a hepatitis B surface antigen test, a rubella immunity test and a syphilis test.
What the price covers
The price usually covers all tests in the panel. The blood draw is often a separate charge, and an HIV test, if done, is billed separately or under a different panel code (80081).
1 row held back from this comparison
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 80055 ($191.20). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
