Cash or insurance?
At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is not below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated. If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you usually pay your plan's negotiated rate, which falls somewhere in the "Insurers pay" column. Paying cash can cost less, but a cash payment usually does not count toward your deductible. Ask the hospital for both numbers before you book.
What it is
A single-view chest X-ray takes one picture of the chest, usually from the front, to show the lungs and heart. It is often done in the emergency room or at the bedside with a portable machine, for example to check a breathing tube or follow up pneumonia.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers taking the X-ray. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
