Illinois law (Hospital Uninsured Patient Discount Act, 210 ILCS 89): an uninsured Illinois resident with family income up to 600% of the federal poverty level (300% at rural and critical access hospitals) can apply for a discount that brings the bill down to about 135% of the hospital's cost; up to 200% (125% at rural hospitals) medically necessary care is free. A hospital may collect no more than 25% of family income in 12 months. Ask the billing office for the application. 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.
