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 $228, 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.

Nevada's hospital market is heavily concentrated in Las Vegas (dominated by HCA Healthcare, which operates the majority of acute care beds in the valley) and Reno (Renown Health). The Las Vegas market has more facility competition than most metro areas of its size, creating genuine price variation. Rural Nevada is extremely sparse - several counties have no hospital within 100 miles.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $234 versus $462 inpatient (about 2× 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 | ~$228 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$46 |
| Out-of-network provider | $502+ |

Why is a pulmonary function test so much cheaper at some Nevada hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 1.4× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Nevada, the median cash (self-pay) price is $228 versus a median negotiated rate of $32 - about 7.1× 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 pulmonary function test in Nevada?
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.
