Our top priority at Inova is to provide every patient with high quality, safe, and affordable healthcare. It is our mission and privilege to serve each individual in the community and to ensure that all patients are well cared for and fully understand the cost of the treatment they receive.
Inova is committed to providing meaningful information about our charges and to helping patients and families understand the financial obligations they will have for healthcare services. The information on this page is designed to provide you with general information about how we charge and provide cost-estimates for out-of-pocket expenses.
Transparency in healthcare costs
If you are not yet an Inova patient and/or would simply like to create your own estimate for information purposes, please visit us at the link below.

If you don’t have health insurance or don’t qualify for Inova's Financial Assistance program, you may be eligible for a discount as a self-pay patient. This applies to most inpatient and outpatient services; some exclusions may apply.
To qualify for Inova's Financial Assistance program, you’ll need to show proof that you live in Virginia. To receive the self-pay discount, you'll need to provide proof that you live in the United States at the time of service.
Patients who do not have insurance or are not using insurance have the right to receive a good faith estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your good faith estimate, you can dispute the bill.
When reviewing estimates please note the following important information:
- Each patient’s individual responsibility will depend upon that patient’s insurance coverage and/or eligibility for Inova’s financial assistance policy.
- Your final bill will consist of multiple different charges based on your specific medical condition, treatment needs, and length of time spent at our facility. These factors can include, but are not limited to:
- How long it takes to perform the services
- Length of time spent in recovery
- The type of medications and supplies required to provide services and follow-up treatment
- Any patient condition or complications that require additional treatment
- You may receive multiple bills for your stay, including separate bills from physicians not employed by Inova (including anesthesiologists, radiologists, surgeons, and other specialists). Each of these additional providers maintains their own list of standard charges and you should contact them directly for additional information.
