Before you schedule
Your cash price for a cardiac CT calcium score in Chesapeake ranges from about $170 to $840 depending on where you go — nearly a five-fold difference for the same test. That's unusually wide, which means calling ahead to ask the cash price at each facility could save you hundreds of dollars. If your insurance covers this screening, your out-of-pocket cost will depend on your deductible and copay, but the facility's gross charges affect whether you hit your deductible faster.
Before you schedule, call the billing department at whichever hospital your doctor recommends and ask for the cash price specifically for a cardiac CT calcium score — don't accept a range or estimate. Ask the same question at one or two other facilities in the area so you can compare actual numbers. If cost is a concern, mention that to your doctor; they may have flexibility about where to send you, or they can help you understand whether this test is truly necessary right now versus waiting.
Questions to ask when you call
Before scheduling, call the hospital's billing department. These are the exact questions that get you the answers you need.
"What is your cash price for Cardiac CT Calcium Score?"
If you haven't met your deductible, the cash price may be lower than what your insurance negotiates. Many hospitals will honor their published cash price if you ask.
"What will my insurance plan pay for this, and what's my out-of-pocket?"
Get a written estimate. Ask them to include your deductible status and coinsurance percentage. This is called a "Good Faith Estimate" and you're legally entitled to one.
"Are there any other charges I should expect — radiologist, anesthesiologist, or facility fees?"
These prices are facility fees. Your doctor, radiologist, and anesthesiologist bill separately. Ask how much those could add.
