Upstate New York prices are substantially lower than the NYC metro area.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (7) report prices above $3,017, including Stony Brook Eastern Long Island Hospital at $7,436, 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 $881 versus $870 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. The biggest swing for this procedure is screening versus diagnostic coding - a polyp removed during a routine screening can recode the whole visit as diagnostic and trigger cost-sharing you weren't expecting.

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.
