About This Procedure
An echocardiogram uses ultrasound waves to create images of the heart's chambers, valves, walls, and blood vessels. Essential for diagnosing heart conditions.
Why do these costs look low?
These figures represent Medicaid reimbursement rates — the amounts that state Medicaid programs actually paid providers. Medicaid typically reimburses significantly less than private insurance or out-of-pocket prices. If you have private insurance or are paying cash, expect higher costs. See the cost components below for per-code averages.
