Important: These are cost estimates only — not a quote and not medical advice.
The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 45378 — Diagnostic colonoscopy, flexible). They represent what a patient might pay without insurance.
Your actual cost depends on: your specific insurance plan, your remaining deductible, your coinsurance percentage, whether you have met your out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility and provider are both in-network, and any separate anesthesia or implant fees billed independently.
This page does not constitute medical advice. Whether you need this procedure, and which approach is right for you, is a decision to make with a licensed healthcare provider.

Data source: Cost figures are derived from UnitedHealthcare Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files for CPT code 45378 (Diagnostic colonoscopy, flexible), as mandated by the CMS Price Transparency Rule.

How to read this data
Negotiated Rate
The discounted price an insurer has agreed to pay a specific provider. Most insured patients' bills are calculated from this number, not the higher list price hospitals publish separately.
P5, Median, P95
P5 is the rate at the 5th percentile (low end), Median is the middle value, and P95 is the 95th percentile (high end). This range shows how much the same visit can vary between providers.
What this does not tell you
These rates do not tell you what you personally will pay out of pocket. That depends on your specific plan, how much of your deductible you have already met, your coinsurance rate, and whether the provider is in your network. Call your insurer's member line to get your exact estimate.
Why Colonoscopy Visit Costs Vary Across Florida
Florida's healthcare costs run approximately 2% above national averages, driven by the state's aging population and concentration of specialized gastroenterology services in major metropolitan areas. The extensive ASC infrastructure creates competitive pricing pressure that often benefits patients seeking routine colonoscopy procedures.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Major metropolitan areas like Miami-Dade, Tampa Bay, and Orlando offer abundant gastroenterology options with competitive pricing, while rural counties in North Florida and the Panhandle may have limited providers and higher travel costs. This geographic disparity can create $200-300 cost differences for the same procedure depending on location.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Florida's robust ASC network provides cost-effective alternatives to hospital-based procedures, with independent surgery centers often charging 40-60% less than hospital outpatient departments. Major health systems like AdventHealth, Baptist Health, and HCA Healthcare operate both hospital-based and ASC facilities with varying cost structures.
Insurance Market Competition in Florida
The presence of multiple major insurers including UnitedHealthCare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida, and Aetna creates competitive pressure on negotiated rates. However, market concentration in certain regions can limit patient choice and maintain higher pricing for colonoscopy procedures.
Physician Supply and Demand in Florida
With over 5,100 active colonoscopy providers statewide, Florida maintains adequate physician supply relative to its large and aging population. This relatively strong provider network helps contain costs and reduces wait times compared to states with physician shortages, though demand continues growing as baby boomers age.
