CT scan cost in Nebraska without insurance

In Nebraska, the median cash price for CT abdomen and pelvis is $4,292.53 across 52 hospitals, from $550.00 to $7,290.00. The lowest is at Midwest Surgical Hospital (Omaha). The US median is $2,680.05.

A CT scan uses X-rays and a computer to make cross-section pictures of the body, and because it is fast it is used often for injuries, bleeding and sudden abdominal pain. The price depends on the body area and on whether iodine contrast dye is used, and scheduled scans at freestanding imaging centers are often priced lower than the same scan at a hospital.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Check whether your order says with, without, or without and with contrast; each is a different code with its own price.
  • Ask whether the contrast dye is billed as a separate pharmacy charge and whether the radiologist's reading is included.
  • For a contrast scan, ask whether a kidney function blood test is required beforehand and whether it is included in the quote.
