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

  • The University of Tennessee Medical Center is the lowest-cost option at $1,110 - $779 below the median posted price ($1,889), just by choosing where you go.
  • Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $1,889, 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.

HCA Healthcare, headquartered in Nashville, has significant hospital presence in its home state, creating pricing patterns more aligned with for-profit hospital economics than nonprofit systems in comparable markets. Vanderbilt University Medical Center anchors the Nashville academic tier. Tennessee has not expanded Medicaid under the ACA, maintaining a high uninsured rate that influences facility pricing structures.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (11) report prices above $3,890, including Shelby County Health Care Corporation at $11,165, 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 $1,889 versus $4,532 inpatient (about 2.4× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.

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.

Your situation Estimated out-of-pocket
Deductible not yet met ~$1,889
Deductible met - 20% coinsurance ~$378
Out-of-network provider $4,156+

Frequently asked questions: ovarian cyst removal costs in Tennessee

How much does an ovarian cyst removal cost in Tennessee?

The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $1,295, with most facilities between $1,089 and $1,975 (based on 61 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Posted cash prices at the middle 80% of Tennessee hospitals run $1,093–$5,399; outlier facilities above and below that range are left out. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.

Where is the cheapest place to get an ovarian cyst removal in Tennessee?

Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our Tennessee data is The University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville at about $1,110. By metro, Chattanooga has the lowest median ($1,093). Freestanding ambulatory surgery centers are often cheaper still and may not appear in hospital price data - ask your doctor whether one is an option.

Why is an ovarian cyst removal so much cheaper at some Tennessee hospitals?

Typical prices vary about 1.8× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Tennessee, the median cash (self-pay) price is $1,889 versus a median negotiated rate of $4,078 - cash is the lower number at many hospitals. 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 an ovarian cyst removal in Tennessee?

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.
