Cash or insurance?
At 2 of 4 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
Cardioversion uses a brief electric shock to restore a normal heart rhythm, most often for atrial fibrillation.
What the price covers
The price usually covers the procedure. Sedation or anesthesia is often billed separately.
1 row held back from this comparison
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 92960 ($1,145.00). 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.
