Short arm splint application cost without insurance: real cash prices
Applying a short arm/forearm splint (CPT 29125). This is the facility fee for putting the splint on only — it does NOT include the doctor's visit, fracture setting (reduction), X-rays, or follow-up care, which are billed separately. The low price reflects just the splint application, not full fracture treatment. Published cash prices for this procedure run from $24 to $22,351 across 1213 U.S. facilities. Where you go changes the price more than anything else.

How your money goes farthest
Move 1. Call and say “self-pay.” Ask for the all-in self-pay price and whether the doctor’s fee and anesthesia are included. Independent centers usually run far below hospitals for the same code.
Move 2. Do the travel math. For planned procedures, the spread between facilities is often thousands of dollars — more than a flight and a hotel.
Move 3. Use your financial-assistance rights. Nonprofit hospitals must offer financial assistance by federal law; you can apply up to 240 days after the first bill.
