Inpatient: lowest $1,062.50, median $2,057.70, highest $3,938.02 — a 3.7× difference within the same market.

As an outpatient, the same code is billed by 35 facilities here, median $2,057.70 — that is the price to compare if you are not being admitted.

What it is

A CT scan of the head uses X-rays and a computer to make detailed cross-section pictures of the brain and skull. It is often used after a head injury, for sudden severe headache, or to look for bleeding or stroke. No contrast dye is used.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers the scan (the technical part). The radiologist's reading of the images is often billed separately as the professional component.

1 row held back from this comparison

It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 70450 ($1,061.20). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
