What the whole procedure costs
The office rate above is what an imaging center, lab or office is paid for the whole test. In a hospital, the facility bills its own fee and the physician bills only the reading. These are 2026 national Medicare amounts.
This is Medicare's separate payment to the facility on top of the physician's fee. For a test like this the physician in a hospital bills only the reading (the professional component); outside a hospital one global fee covers the whole test, shown in the office rate above. Medicare allowed amounts are not what an uninsured patient is charged, and not a quote. Private plans typically allow more.
Your ZIP in Florida
Because Florida uses multiple localities, check your ZIP code specifically, whether you are in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, or the Panhandle.

What these numbers are
Every figure on this page is a 2026 Medicare allowed amount: the physician line comes from the Physician Fee Schedule adjusted by geographic practice-cost indices, and the facility totals come from the CMS hospital outpatient (OPPS) and ambulatory surgery center rates. None of them is a hospital chargemaster price, your insurer's contracted rate, or a quote. Anesthesia, pathology, imaging reads and follow-up care are billed under their own codes when they apply, and an inpatient stay is paid a different way again. In Florida the office and hospital physician lines for this CPT differ by $86.09.

Ultrasound Transvaginal and how Florida is priced
Florida is split into a handful of Medicare payment localities rather than priced statewide: Miami carries its own high-cost locality, the Fort Lauderdale area is separately priced, and the remainder of the state, from Jacksonville to the Panhandle, shares rest-of-state pricing. That structure means South Florida procedures carry higher Medicare-approved amounts than identical care in Orlando, Tampa, or rural North Florida. The Miami locality in particular ranks among the more expensive in the eastern United States. For a state with this many Medicare beneficiaries, knowing which locality your ZIP falls in is genuinely useful.
Florida has the nation's most Medicare-driven health economy, and its markets are intensely competitive in the big retiree corridors along both coasts. South Florida is known for high utilization and a dense supply of specialists, while inland and Panhandle counties can be thin on subspecialty care. Seasonal residents should note that prices follow where care is delivered, so a winter procedure in Naples prices differently than one back home up north.
This procedure: A transvaginal ultrasound places a slim, covered probe a short distance into the vagina to obtain close-up images of the uterus, endometrial lining, and ovaries. Because the probe sits near these organs, it shows detail that scanning over the belly cannot, making it the standard test for abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, ovarian cysts, and early pregnancy evaluation. The exam takes 10 to 20 minutes, involves pressure but not usually pain, and a female chaperone can be requested.
What Is Ultrasound Transvaginal?
A transvaginal ultrasound places a slim, covered probe a short distance into the vagina to obtain close-up images of the uterus, endometrial lining, and ovaries. Because the probe sits near these organs, it shows detail that scanning over the belly cannot, making it the standard test for abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, ovarian cysts, and early pregnancy evaluation. The exam takes 10 to 20 minutes, involves pressure but not usually pain, and a female chaperone can be requested.
What Affects the Cost
- –It is frequently billed together with a transabdominal pelvic ultrasound (76856) in the same appointment, doubling the imaging lines on the claim.
- –OB/GYN offices performing it in-house often charge less overall than hospital imaging departments.
- –In fertility care, this scan may be repeated at multiple monitoring visits per cycle, and fertility monitoring is often billed outside regular insurance benefits.
- –The reading fee bills separately where a radiologist rather than the examining gynecologist interprets.
- –Findings such as a thickened lining commonly lead to biopsy or hysteroscopy, each a new procedure cost.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Will you bill both a transvaginal and an abdominal pelvic ultrasound today, and why are both needed?
- 2.Is this scan being coded as diagnostic or as fertility monitoring, and how does my plan treat each?
- 3.Who interprets the images, and is their fee separate?
- 4.What does this cost in your office versus the hospital's imaging department?
- 5.If the scan shows a thickened lining or cyst, what follow-up procedures and costs should I expect?

Yes. CMS splits Florida into 3 payment localities. For this CPT the office physician fee spans $9.98 from the lowest to highest locality. Because Florida uses multiple localities, check your ZIP code specifically, whether you are in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, or the Panhandle.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $24 for the office physician line or $7 for the hospital physician line in Florida. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
It depends on where the test is done. At an independent imaging center, lab or office, $119.78 is Medicare's full rate in Florida, covering the test and the reading. In a hospital outpatient department the physician is paid only for the reading (about $33.69) and the hospital is paid separately, which brings the national total to about $139. Florida ranks #38 of 51 states on the non-hospital rate (within 2% of the national office rate of $117.57).
