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?

- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $52, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
- Independent and doctor-office labs often charge much less than hospital labs for the same test and may not appear in this hospital-only dataset. Ask where your plan sends lab work.

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.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
A small number of hospitals (4) report prices above $300, including Post Acute Medical Rehabilitation Hospital of Tulsa LLC at $468, 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 $39 versus $88 inpatient (about 2.3× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.
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 | ~$46 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$9 |
| Out-of-network provider | $101+ |
Frequently asked questions: metabolic panel costs in Oklahoma
How much does a metabolic panel cost in Oklahoma?

Posted cash prices at the middle 80% of Oklahoma hospitals run $9–$190; outlier facilities above and below that range are left out.

Where is the cheapest place to get a metabolic panel in Oklahoma?
Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our Oklahoma data is Jefferson County Hospital OK in Waurika at about $15. By metro, Oklahoma City has the lowest median ($10).
Why is a metabolic panel so much cheaper at some Oklahoma hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 1.1× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Oklahoma, the median cash (self-pay) price is $52 versus a median negotiated rate of $32 - about 1.6× 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 metabolic panel in Oklahoma?
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. If you have not met your deductible, you will typically pay the negotiated rate in full until you do. Use the CostKits cost forecaster to estimate your specific out-of-pocket amount before you go.
