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

• Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $159, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
• Ask whether this procedure can be done at a freestanding ambulatory surgical center - they're typically 30-60% cheaper than a hospital for identical care, and most aren't in this hospital-only dataset.
