Before you book: three questions that change the price

  1. Is this the self-pay price, and does it include the doctor, anesthesia and any lab or pathology? Those are often billed separately.
  2. Can you give me the price in writing, with the billing codes it covers?
  3. What happens to the price if something extra is needed during the procedure?

Quick take

  • Webster Memorial Hospital Inc is the lowest-cost option at $118 - $208 below the median posted price ($326), just by choosing where you go.
  • Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $326, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
  • Doctor offices and independent clinics may charge differently from hospitals for the same service and may not appear in this hospital-only dataset. Ask your doctor whether another site is an option.

How where you go changes what you pay for chemotherapy infusion

The same chemotherapy infusion bundles different services depending on the setting - facility fee, surgeon fee, and anesthesia each arrive as separate bills. Estimated ranges below reflect the typical full bundled cost, including all expected charges.

Hospital Outpatient
$286–$2,211
  • Facility fee $101–$1,719
  • Professional fee $185–$492

Estimated from CMS fee schedules + commercial rate multipliers

Hospital Inpatient
$298–$2,211
  • Facility fee $113–$1,719
  • Professional fee $185–$492

Estimated from CMS fee schedules + commercial rate multipliers

WVU Medicine and CAMC (Charleston Area Medical Center) are the primary academic systems, with Thomas Health and Highmark's West Penn Allegheny network providing additional coverage. West Virginia has one of the lowest wage indices in the country, which depresses Medicare-adjusted rates significantly - but commercial rates don't always follow the same pattern. Many rural facilities are critical access hospitals.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (1) report prices above $1,431, including Charleston Area Medical Center at $1,719, which drives most of the overall spread - excluding them, most facilities cluster in a much tighter band. Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $326 versus $469 inpatient (about 1.4× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.

What you pay out of pocket on top of this depends on your deductible, your plan's out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved is in-network - not just the facility.

Your situation Estimated out-of-pocket
Deductible not yet met ~$326
Deductible met - 20% coinsurance ~$65
Out-of-network provider $717+

Why is a chemotherapy infusion so much cheaper at some West Virginia hospitals?

Typical prices vary about 1.3× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In West Virginia, the median cash (self-pay) price is $326 versus a median negotiated rate of $339 - cash is the lower number at many hospitals. Asking for the cash price as well as your insurer's negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on what you pay.

How much will I actually pay out of pocket for a chemotherapy infusion in West Virginia?

Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximum, and whether the facility is in-network - not just the sticker price. If you have not met your deductible, you will typically pay the negotiated rate in full until you do. Use the CostKits cost forecaster to estimate your specific out-of-pocket amount before you go.
