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
This is surgical removal of a tooth that is completely covered by jawbone, most often a wisdom tooth. The surgeon opens the gum, removes bone and often sections the tooth to take it out.
What the price covers
The fee usually covers the surgery with local anesthesia and routine follow-up care, per tooth. IV sedation or general anesthesia, X-rays or a 3D scan, and the consultation are billed separately.
