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. 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 free PSA test measures the part of PSA in the blood that is not bound to proteins. It is usually done along with a total PSA; the ratio of free to total PSA can help a doctor decide whether further testing, such as a biopsy, is needed.
What the price covers
The price covers the free PSA test only. The total PSA (84153) and the blood draw are billed separately.
