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 CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast uses X-rays and an injected iodine dye to make detailed pictures of the organs in the belly and pelvis. It is often used to look for causes of abdominal pain, such as appendicitis, kidney problems, infection or masses.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers the scan. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately, and the contrast dye may be listed as a separate pharmacy charge.
