Tough to say, as each hospital sets it up on their own. https://www.asge.org/docs/default-source/coding/colonoscopy_.... There might be a number of different codes applied to the same layman term for a procedure, so using Estimates and MyChart messaging with a financial counselor is frequently the fastest way to get the real answer.
