Patients who have to pay for some or all of their healthcare services need to know how much they should pay before they receive treatment. Most hospitals and doctors don’t publish their prices, and the "list price" for services (sometimes called billed charges) is much higher than what insurance companies pay providers. However, many healthcare providers will provide a discount to patients who pay out of pocket. But you have to request a discount.

Even if you have insurance and use in-network providers, the negotiated prices can vary a lot. You may save money by checking the negotiated rates with several in-network providers.
