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 45380 — Colonoscopy with biopsy). 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.

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 with Biopsy Visit Costs Vary Across Oregon
Oregon's healthcare costs run approximately 9% above the national average, driven by the state's geographic challenges and concentrated provider markets in urban corridors. The stark contrast between Portland's competitive specialist market and rural counties with limited gastroenterology access creates significant cost and availability disparities across the state.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Most of Oregon's 397 Colonoscopy with Biopsy providers practice in the Portland metro area, Eugene, and other urban centers, leaving vast rural regions underserved. Patients in eastern and southern Oregon often travel hours to reach specialized gastroenterology care, potentially adding travel costs but sometimes finding lower procedure fees. This geographic concentration drives up demand and costs in urban markets while limiting options for rural residents.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Oregon's healthcare market includes major systems like Kaiser Permanente, Providence, and OHSU, which operate hospital-based outpatient departments with higher overhead costs than independent practices. The growing number of ambulatory surgery centers offers a middle ground, providing specialized facilities without full hospital overhead. Independent gastroenterology practices often offer the most competitive pricing, especially for routine diagnostic procedures and follow-up visits.
Insurance Market Competition in Oregon
The state's insurance market features moderate competition between Regence BCBS, PacificSource, and UHC, though rural areas may have fewer plan options than urban markets. This competitive landscape helps keep negotiated rates reasonable in metropolitan areas, while rural regions may see higher costs due to limited provider networks. The absence of an all-payer claims database limits price transparency, making cost comparison more challenging for patients.
Physician Supply and Demand in Oregon
With 397 active providers statewide, Oregon maintains a reasonable supply of Colonoscopy with Biopsy specialists relative to its population, though distribution heavily favors urban areas. This adequate supply in metro markets helps moderate costs and reduces wait times, while rural shortages can drive up demand and pricing. The state's appeal to healthcare professionals helps maintain steady recruitment, though rural retention remains challenging.
