Cash or insurance?
At 8 of 8 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at none is it 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 chest CT angiogram images the blood vessels of the chest with contrast dye. It is the main test for a blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism) and for problems of the aorta.
What the price covers
The price usually covers the scan. The radiologist's reading may be billed separately.
