- 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?

Quick take
- Mercy Hospital Logan County Inc is the lowest-cost option at $147 - $334 below the state median, just by choosing where you go.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $481, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
- Independent imaging centers often charge much less than hospital outpatient departments for the same scan and may not appear in this hospital-only dataset - ask your doctor whether one is an option.
INTEGRIS Health and Mercy (Oklahoma City) and Saint Francis Health System (Tulsa) are the primary players in Oklahoma's two major metro markets. Oklahoma has consistently high uninsured rates, and Medicaid reimbursement has historically been among the lowest in the country, both of which create upward pressure on commercial list prices. Echocardiograms are unusual in that the physician component (interpretation fee) and technical component (sonographer and equipment) are often billed separately, meaning you may receive two bills from two different providers. Hospital-based cardiology departments also add a facility fee that independent echo labs and cardiology offices don't charge. The same study can cost $200 at a freestanding cardiology office and $2,000 at a hospital outpatient department.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $276 versus $862 inpatient (about 3.1× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. Whether the scan happens in a hospital outpatient department (which adds a separate facility fee) or a freestanding imaging center is usually the single biggest driver of price for this procedure.
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 | ~$481 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$96 |
| Out-of-network provider | $1,058+ |

What matters before you schedule
Imaging center vs. hospital
Hospital outpatient departments typically charge 2-4x more than independent imaging centers for the same echocardiogram - same outcome, very different bill. The ER charges the most of any setting and should only be used when the situation is medically urgent. Call ahead and ask for a self-pay or cash quote at each setting you're considering.
Cost by type
Which type your doctor orders for this echocardiogram changes the billing code, and what you pay. For example: A recognized variation that can change the billing code and what you owe.
This is shoppable
Echocardiogram is elective and schedulable, so you have time to compare facilities before booking - hospital outpatient prices often run 2-4x higher than alternative settings for the identical clinical outcome.
What to ask before you book
Get the CPT code from your doctor, confirm every provider involved (not just the facility) is in-network, ask for the cash-pay rate if you're uninsured or haven't met your deductible, and request a written estimate for echocardiogram before you schedule.
