Connecticut law (C.G.S. §19a-673): if you are uninsured, your income is at or below 250% of the federal poverty level and Medicaid has turned you down, a hospital and the clinicians billing through it may collect no more than the cost of your care (its charges times its cost-to-charge ratio), which is usually well below its list price. Ask the billing office to apply it. Other states' laws.

A coronary calcium score is a quick CT scan of the heart, without contrast dye, that measures calcium in the heart's arteries. It is used to estimate the risk of heart disease in people without symptoms. Many insurers do not cover it, so imaging centers often set a flat self-pay price. A coronary CT angiography (75574) uses contrast dye to show the arteries themselves and costs more. If you have chest pain right now, call 911 instead of scheduling a scan.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Ask whether the price includes the radiologist's report; many centers quote one flat price for scan and report.
  • Imaging centers and heart clinics often charge much less than hospitals for the same scan, so compare several.
  • Ask your doctor whether a calcium score fits your age and risk; it is not meant for people who already have symptoms.
