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 43239 — EGD 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 EGD with Biopsy Visit Costs Vary Across Florida
Florida's EGD with Biopsy costs run approximately 2% above the national average, reflecting the state's large healthcare market and significant ambulatory surgery center presence. The state's unique geography, stretching from rural northern counties to dense urban corridors, creates substantial cost variations even within the same insurance network.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Florida's population concentrates heavily in metropolitan areas like Miami-Dade, Broward, Tampa Bay, and Orlando, where gastroenterology practices cluster and create more competitive pricing. Rural counties in North Florida and the Panhandle often have limited specialist access, requiring patients to travel to larger cities and potentially pay higher costs due to reduced provider competition.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Florida's extensive ambulatory surgery center network offers an alternative to traditional hospital outpatient departments, often at lower costs due to reduced overhead. Major health systems like AdventHealth, Baptist Health, and HCA Healthcare operate numerous locations throughout the state, but their hospital-based facilities typically charge more than independent gastroenterology surgery centers.
Insurance Market Competition in Florida
The presence of multiple major insurers including UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida, and Aetna creates moderate competition for provider contracts, though market concentration varies by region. South Florida tends to have more insurer options and competitive rates, while rural areas may see less competition and potentially higher negotiated prices for specialty procedures.
Physician Supply and Demand in Florida
With over 5,570 providers performing EGD with Biopsy procedures, Florida has relatively strong gastroenterology access compared to many states, though distribution favors urban areas. This robust provider supply helps moderate costs in metropolitan regions, while rural areas may experience longer wait times and higher prices due to limited specialist availability relative to population needs.
