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

St. Luke's Health System dominates the Boise metro and much of the state, with Saint Alphonsus (Trinity Health) as the primary competitor. Low facility density outside the Treasure Valley and Panhandle means limited price competition for most of the state's geography. Boise prices are generally moderate relative to national averages.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $334 versus $239 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.
On top of the facility price, your actual bill depends on your deductible, your out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved - not just the facility - is in-network.
| Your situation | Estimated out-of-pocket |
|---|---|
| Deductible not yet met | ~$323 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$65 |
| Out-of-network provider | $711+ |
Frequently asked questions: doppler ultrasound costs in Idaho
How much does a doppler ultrasound cost in Idaho?
The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $100, with most facilities between $48 and $116 (based on 28 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Posted cash prices at the middle 80% of Idaho hospitals run $77–$471; outlier facilities above and below that range are left out. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.
Where is the cheapest place to get a doppler ultrasound in Idaho?
Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our Idaho data is IHC Health Services Inc., DBA Intermountain Health Cassia Regional Hospital in Burley at about $92. By metro, Boise has the lowest median ($186). Independent imaging centers are often cheaper still and may not appear in hospital price data - ask your doctor whether one is an option.
Why is a doppler ultrasound so much cheaper at some Idaho hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 2.4× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Idaho, the median cash (self-pay) price is $323 versus a median negotiated rate of $340 - 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 doppler ultrasound in Idaho?
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.
