What this is
This is a digestive-system service — for example an endoscopy, colonoscopy, or another GI procedure — usually performed in an outpatient setting.
What affects the price
A screening version of a procedure may be covered differently from a diagnostic one with the same code, and anesthesia is often billed separately. Confirm how it will be coded before you go, and ask for the anesthesia estimate too.
