Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) anchors the academic tier and the Portland market. Providence Health and Legacy Health compete for commercial volume in Portland, while PeaceHealth covers the southern coast and Eugene corridor. Oregon passed aggressive price transparency legislation, and its hospital-reported data is among the most complete in the West. Mammogram pricing splits along two axes: screening vs. diagnostic classification and facility type. Screening mammograms are covered at 100% under the ACA's preventive care mandate for most commercial plans, but a finding during screening that triggers additional views or a diagnostic repeat converts a $0 visit to a cost-sharing event. Hospital-based breast imaging centers add facility fees that freestanding imaging centers don't charge - typically 2–3× higher for the identical study.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $85 versus $53 inpatient, 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.

None of the prices above are what you'll necessarily owe: your deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and each provider's network status all still apply.
