What this price typically doesn't include
Procedure codes generally cover the procedure itself. Other services that often appear on the same bill are listed under separate codes — for example:
- Anesthesia (CPT 00xxx)
- Pathology, if a sample is taken (CPT 88xxx)
- Drugs administered during the visit (J-codes)
- Facility vs. professional split — one charge from the hospital, another from the doctor
- Room and board, if the procedure is inpatient
Asking what other codes might appear on the bill is a useful follow-up so the total is not a surprise. Once you receive the bill, asking for an itemized statement listing each service code separately makes it easier to match against the disclosed prices above.

Before you schedule
If you're paying out of pocket for this CT scan in Arlington, you're looking at a price range that swings from around $1,065 to $3,785 — more than triple the lowest price. That gap is large enough to matter: choosing the cheaper option could save you nearly $2,700. Your actual out-of-pocket cost will depend on your insurance plan's deductible and coinsurance, so call your insurance company first to understand what you'll owe, then use that number to compare hospitals.
Before you schedule, call the billing department at 2–3 hospitals in Arlington and ask for their cash price for a CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast. Tell them your insurance plan name and ask whether that price changes if you use your insurance versus paying yourself. Some hospitals offer financial assistance if your household income is below a certain threshold — worth asking about while you're on the phone. Once you know the actual cost to you, you can decide whether the savings are worth traveling a few minutes farther.
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 CT Abdomen and Pelvis with Contrast?"
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.
