About CT Scan Chest
A chest CT scan provides detailed images of the lungs, heart, blood vessels, airways, and chest wall. It is used to evaluate chest pain, shortness of breath, suspected blood clots (pulmonary embolism), lung nodules, and infections.
Understanding Your Bill
Your bill typically includes a facility fee and radiologist reading fee. CT pulmonary angiography (for blood clots) requires contrast and may cost more than a standard chest CT.
How to Save on Your CT Scan Chest
Compare Cash Prices
Cash prices can be 50-80% lower than insurance rates. Always ask for the self-pay price before booking.
Consider Imaging Centers
Freestanding imaging centers often charge much less than hospitals for the same exact scan.
Submit to Insurance
Even if you pay cash, submit a claim. It still counts toward your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.
