According to an analysis conducted by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, the costs for common medical procedures were found to be as much as 58 percent higher when performed in a hospital outpatient department compared to a doctor's office. Blue Health Intelligence examined commercial claims data from 2017 to 2022, covering 133 million Blue Cross and Blue Shield members, to evaluate the variance in allowed costs for six common outpatient services: mammograms, colonoscopy screenings, diagnostic colonoscopies, cataract surgeries, ear tympanostomy procedures, and clinical visits.
