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
- Stafford Hospital is the lowest-cost option at $809 - $1,186 below the median posted price ($1,995), just by choosing where you go.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $1,995, 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.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
A small number of hospitals (5) report prices above $7,979, including MARY IMMACULATE HOSPITAL LLC at $18,819, 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 $1,995 versus $842 inpatient, so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. Setting drives most of the spread here: an ambulatory surgical center (ASC) is usually meaningfully cheaper than a hospital operating room for the same procedure, when your case qualifies.
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 | ~$1,995 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$399 |
| Out-of-network provider | $4,389+ |
Frequently asked questions: sinus surgery costs in Virginia
How much does a sinus surgery cost in Virginia?
The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $1,995, with most facilities between $842 and $2,612 (based on 49 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Posted cash prices start at $809, with a median of $1,995; outlier facilities 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 a sinus surgery in Virginia?
Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our Virginia data is Stafford Hospital at about $809. By metro, Alexandria has the lowest median ($842). 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 a sinus surgery so much cheaper at some Virginia hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 3.1× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Virginia, the median cash (self-pay) price is $1,995 versus a median negotiated rate of $1,995 - 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 sinus surgery in Virginia?
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.
