Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Cardiology - Stockbridge

Your child's visit may require testing that includes an electrocardiogram (EKG) and an echocardiogram (ECHO). We try to include all tests on the day of the first visit to avoid your family from having to schedule an additional visit later for the testing and results. During the visit, the cardiologist will review the images, relay findings, and make a plan for your child's continued care.

Your child's visit may take 2-3 hours depending on testing and the need of the patient. This may include time in the waiting room to complete all needed tests and have a consultation.

If you have financial questions, you can call 404-256-2593 (choose option 7 then 1).

If you have insurance, please check with your insurance carrier or contact our Financial Counseling Team to help determine your out of pocket cost. If you are self-pay, we recommend you contact our Financial Counseling Team prior to your child’s visit to obtain an estimate.

The cost depends on the services required to diagnose or treat your child’s condition. There is an office visit cost, and you could have an EKG/ECHO cost. Your insurance will determine your costs. The remaining balance will be what your insurance allows (generally around $700.00 for a first-time visit). If you have a copay, coinsurance, and/or deductible, you will be responsible to pay for that portion of the bill first; your insurance company will pay their agreed upon portion of the bill. If your cardiologist determines your child requires additional testing the cost could be more than a regular office visit cost.
