What the whole procedure costs
The rate above is the physician’s fee on its own. The facility bills separately, and for most procedures the facility is the larger half of the bill. These are 2026 national Medicare amounts.
This is Medicare's separate payment to the facility on top of the physician's fee. Medicare allowed amounts are not what an uninsured patient is charged, and not a quote. Private plans typically allow more.

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 centre 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.
National vs Oklahoma
Where Oklahoma ranks for this CPT
Stress Echocardiogram and how Oklahoma is priced
Oklahoma is priced as one statewide locality with geographic indices in the low national tier, so Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and the rural southwest share a single set of Medicare-approved amounts. The state's two big metros hold most of its providers, but neither carries a separate locality premium. Low practice-cost indices keep Oklahoma's published rates among the more affordable in the fee schedule. What patients pay hinges mainly on care setting and insurance status rather than where in the state they live.
Oklahoma City and Tulsa split the state's specialty care between them, each with academic-affiliated medical centers and competing regional systems. Rural Oklahoma has struggled with hospital closures and physician recruitment, leaving long drives in the Panhandle and the southeast. Tribal health systems are a significant part of the care landscape, operating some of the larger rural facilities in the state.
This procedure: A stress echocardiogram combines a heart ultrasound with exercise: images are taken at rest, you walk or run on a treadmill to a target heart rate, then images are rapidly repeated to see whether any heart wall moves poorly under stress, a sign of blocked arteries. It answers many of the same questions as a nuclear stress test without radiation. Plan on about an hour, wear exercise clothes, and expect to be pushed close to your maximum effort.
What Is Stress Echocardiogram?
A stress echocardiogram combines a heart ultrasound with exercise: images are taken at rest, you walk or run on a treadmill to a target heart rate, then images are rapidly repeated to see whether any heart wall moves poorly under stress, a sign of blocked arteries. It answers many of the same questions as a nuclear stress test without radiation. Plan on about an hour, wear exercise clothes, and expect to be pushed close to your maximum effort.
What Affects the Cost
- –The complete service stacks several billed parts: the imaging, the treadmill stress supervision, and the physician interpretations.
- –Patients who cannot exercise need a dobutamine infusion instead, adding drug and administration charges.
- –Office-based cardiology labs undercut hospital outpatient pricing for the identical test.
- –It is generally cheaper than a nuclear stress test because there is no radioactive tracer, an argument for it when either test would do.
- –Inconclusive results can cascade to nuclear imaging, CT angiography, or catheterization, each a fresh cost tier.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Is stress echo or a nuclear test better for my situation, and what does each cost me?
- 2.Has prior authorization been approved for this specific test?
- 3.Will I exercise, or will I need the dobutamine version, and what does the drug add?
- 4.Is this in an office lab or a hospital department, and what is the price at each?
- 5.If the result is unclear, what is the next test and its cost?

Stress Echocardiogram in Oklahoma: questions
Oklahoma is a single Medicare locality for this fee schedule. The 2026 physician rate for CPT 93350 is $170.34 in an office and $170.34 in a hospital, statewide. A ZIP lookup still confirms the locality mapping.
Not on the physician fee schedule. Oklahoma uses one locality, so the Medicare physician rate is the same from one end of the state to the other. What still changes is site of service (office vs hospital) and any facility fee the hospital bills on its own claim.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $34 for the office physician line or $34 for the hospital physician line in Oklahoma. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
No. $170.34 is only the physician's share. Adding Medicare's facility payment brings the total to about $744 in a hospital outpatient department. Anesthesia, pathology and other codes billed the same day are extra. Oklahoma ranks #6 of 51 states on the physician line (8% below the national office rate of $185.37).
