"Cash price" = the hospital's published discounted_cash self-pay rate. "Gross charge" = the sticker price before any discount — what cash-pay patients are first billed and can negotiate down toward the cash rate.

Paying cash? Ask the hospital's billing office for the "self-pay" or "prompt-pay" rate and bring the figure above — it's a published ceiling you can negotiate from, not a fixed quote. Free-standing imaging centers and ASCs are frequently cheaper than hospital outpatient departments for the same code.

How to use this

If you're paying cash for CT Scan of the Abdomen & Pelvis (with contrast), the hospital's published self-pay price is a ceiling you can negotiate from, not a fixed quote. Bring the figure above (and the source file) to billing and ask for the cash / prompt-pay rate. Free-standing imaging centers and ASCs are often well below hospital outpatient rates.
