Bone Density Scan (DEXA) cost in High Point, NC

You're looking at bone density scans in High Point, and the good news is the price range here is tight — you're looking at somewhere between $198 and $246 for a cash price, depending on which facility you choose. That's only a 24 percent spread, which means you won't save dramatically by shopping around, but you could save $50 if you land on the lowest option. The real question is whether your insurance will cover this scan; if your doctor ordered it and your insurance approves it, you'll likely pay a copay instead of the cash price, so the out-of-pocket difference between facilities may be small.

Before you schedule, call the imaging center where your doctor wants to send you and ask what your copay or coinsurance will be under your specific plan — that number matters more than the cash price. If you're uninsured or your insurance won't cover it, ask that same facility for their cash price to confirm it's in the $198–246 range, then do a quick call to one other center to see if you can save that $50. The scan itself takes about 10–15 minutes, so convenience and appointment availability might matter as much as price.
