Cash or insurance?

At 2 of 3 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

This is a yearly preventive checkup for a returning patient aged 65 or older. It includes a review of health history and medicines, a physical exam, counseling and ordering age-appropriate screenings.

What the price covers

The price covers the preventive visit itself. Lab tests, vaccines and screening tests ordered during the visit are billed separately, and treating a new problem at the same visit may add a separate office visit charge.

1 row held back from this comparison

It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 99397 ($157.95). 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.
