What affects the price
Structural and contractual factors that move the price for this code — not clinical reasons.
- Outpatient setting (hospital outpatient department, ambulatory surgery center, or office) is the single biggest non-clinical price driver — the same code in a hospital outpatient department often costs 2–4× the ambulatory-surgery-center rate.
- In-network vs out-of-network status — out-of-network claims rarely use the negotiated rates shown here.
- Screening vs diagnostic mammography is coded differently and reimbursed differently — screening is typically zero cost-share, diagnostic is not.
- Facility fee — many hospitals add a separate facility fee in addition to the procedure rate; ask explicitly when calling.
- Bundled vs unbundled billing — the rate may or may not include radiology read, anesthesia, or pathology. Ask which professional services are included.

What to do next
Ask the hospital for a Good Faith Estimate — under the federal No Surprises Act, hospitals must give uninsured and self-pay patients a written estimate for scheduled care. If you're insured, ask your insurer for your expected cost-sharing in advance, confirm the hospital is in-network, and bring your insurance card.
Common questions
Short answers, derived from the data on this page. See the full FAQ for site-wide questions.
How much does Screening Mammography (Bilateral) cost in Colorado?
Across 37 Colorado hospitals that publish a commercial negotiated rate, the median is $154. The middle half of hospitals fall between $137 and $267 — the 25th-to-75th percentile of per-hospital medians.
Is the doctor's fee included in these prices?
Usually not. These rates are the hospital's facility charge — the room, equipment, and hospital staff. The physician who treats you or reads your results often bills separately for their professional fee. Ask the practice whether professional fees are billed separately before you schedule.
Does insurance change what I'd pay?
Yes. The negotiated rate depends on which insurer and plan you have, and what you actually pay depends on your deductible, coinsurance, and whether the hospital is in your network. Colorado hospitals publish negotiated rates for Screening Mammography (Bilateral) under 89 different payer names. Verify coverage with your insurer before scheduling. Choose your insurance carrier above the hospital table to see per-insurer rates.
What's the cash price for Screening Mammography (Bilateral) if I don't have insurance?
The median discounted cash price across reporting Colorado hospitals is $251. Hospitals are required to publish any discounted cash price they offer self-pay patients — often less than the gross "chargemaster" charge but typically more than the lowest negotiated rate — the per-hospital table on this page shows the full spread.
Is Screening Mammography (Bilateral) covered by Medicare?
Screening Mammography (Bilateral) is generally eligible for Medicare preventive coverage when it's performed as a covered screening or immunization and you meet Medicare's eligibility rules — in those cases there's typically no cost-sharing. The same procedure done for diagnostic or treatment reasons is billed normally against your deductible and coinsurance. Verify with your plan — the coverage pathway, frequency limits, and clinical criteria all matter.
Is this a price quote?
No. These are rates hospitals have published under the federal price-transparency rule — they show what insurers have negotiated, not what you will be billed. Your bill depends on your plan, deductible, in-network status, and clinical circumstances. Verify the price with the hospital and confirm coverage with your insurer before scheduling.
What are my rights if the bill doesn't match?
If you're uninsured or paying cash, the federal No Surprises Act gives you the right to a written Good Faith Estimate before scheduled care — and if the final bill is at least $400 over that estimate, you can dispute it. Most insured patients are also protected from surprise bills for emergency care and certain out-of-network care at in-network facilities.
What does CPT 77067 mean?
CPT 77067 is the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) code for Screening Mammography (Bilateral). It identifies the procedure for billing and price-disclosure purposes — every hospital's machine-readable file reports rates against this code.
