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 and 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
Rotarix protects babies against rotavirus diarrhea. It is given as liquid by mouth, in two doses at 2 and 4 months.
What the price covers
The price is for the vaccine dose. Giving an oral or nasal vaccine is billed as 90473 rather than the injection fee 90471; ask whether it is included.
1 row held back from this comparison
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 90681 ($179.78). 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.
