How much does breast ultrasound cost?

Breast ultrasound cash prices on cleartau range from $174 to $1,140 (10th–90th percentile) across 2961 US hospitals, with a median of $474. Individual hospital prices vary widely; the per-hospital table below shows the spread.

What's typically billed separately for breast ultrasound?

These components are usually billed by a different provider on a separate invoice: radiologist interpretation. They're still part of the episode of care.

How does the breast ultrasound package price get calculated?

Cleartau sums per-component representative prices across the procedure, facility, anesthesia, and (where applicable) implant lines. The package median equals the sum of per-component medians; min and max work the same way. When a hospital publishes a formula (e.g. "150% of Medicare") instead of a dollar amount, the formula is resolved against the matching CMS fee schedule before aggregation.
