$115.92 | $644.00 | 82% | Apr 1, 2026 file |
Outpatient: lowest $37.59, median $68.06, highest $115.92 — a 3.1× difference within the same market.
As an inpatient, the same code is billed by 3 facilities here, median $68.06. Inpatient and outpatient prices are not comparable and are kept on separate pages: the inpatient charge covers admission, not the same purchase.
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 80061 ($76.05). 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.
