Understanding This Medical Fee

Gross Charge vs Negotiated Payment: The median physician charge for this service is $1568.83. However, insured patients almost never pay this full amount directly. Insurers negotiate rates down toward the $305.43 baseline.

Self-Pay & Uninsured Guidance: If you are paying without insurance or out-of-network, request a prompt-pay cash discount. Most medical practices are willing to settle self-pay bills near the customary baseline rate rather than the full gross charge.

Key Questions for Your Doctor's Billing Office:
  • "Does Dr. [Name] participate in my specific insurance plan network?"
  • "What is the total self-pay or cash rate for code 00214 if paid upfront?"
  • "Are there separate facility, anesthesia, or pathology fees associated with this procedure?"
