Cash or insurance?

At 5 of 5 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at 1 it is below every plan's rate. 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.
