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 whole-body bone scan uses a small amount of radioactive tracer to find areas of increased bone activity, such as cancer spread, stress fractures and infections.

What the price covers

The price usually covers the tracer and the scan. The reading may be billed separately.
