Carotid ultrasound cost in New Jersey
In New Jersey, 23 hospitals publish a cash price for carotid artery ultrasound (duplex), both sides of the neck: from $235.10 to $16,169.00, with a median of $322.54. The lowest price is at Virtua Memorial Hospital (Mount Holly) and 4 other hospitals. The highest price is 68.8× the lowest.
- The median here, $322.54, is 64% below the US median of $884.70.
- That is 1.3× Medicare's 2026 national rate for the same service ($243.77).
- New Jersey has the lowest median of 45 states with at least 5 hospitals pricing this code.
- 9 of 23 hospitals list a cash price equal to their full list price, with no self-pay discount.
Why New Jersey prices look low: under state law (P.L.2008, c.60), a hospital may not charge an uninsured New Jersey resident whose family income is below 500% of the federal poverty level more than 115% of what Medicare pays for the same service. If that is you, ask the hospital's billing office to apply this limit; a separate physician fee may still apply. Other states' laws.

Hospital The hospital that published the price, its city and the line exactly as written in its price file.
Cash price The hospital's own price for a patient paying without insurance (“discounted cash” in its price file). Hospitals must publish it under federal law, 45 CFR 180.50. Call to confirm it before booking. More
List price The hospital's full chargemaster price (“gross charge”) before any discount. Almost nobody pays it; the gap to the cash price shows what the self-pay discount is worth. More
File date When the hospital last updated its price file, as the file says itself. A dash means the file gives no date.
At or below Medicare This cash price is at or below what Medicare pays a hospital for the same service, which is unusually low. It is what the hospital's file says; confirm it and what it includes before booking. More
No cash discount This line's cash price equals the hospital's full list price. Many hospitals still reduce bills for uninsured patients: ask the billing office for its self-pay discount in writing. More
