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?

Quick take
- Honorhealth Four Peaks Medical Center is the lowest-cost option at $1,589 - $3,549 below the median posted price ($5,138), just by choosing where you go.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $5,138, 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.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $4,877 versus $10,247 inpatient (about 2.1× 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 | ~$5,138 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$1,028 |
| Out-of-network provider | $11,304+ |

Why is a heart catheterization so much cheaper at some Arizona hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 3.3× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Arizona, the median cash (self-pay) price is $5,138 versus a median negotiated rate of $4,969 - about 1× higher. 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 heart catheterization in Arizona?
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.
