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, shop around—prices in Virginia Beach range from about $2,500 to $5,800, nearly a 2.3x difference for the same procedure. That gap means you could save thousands by choosing carefully. Both Sentara locations in your area are priced at the median ($3,334), which is reasonable compared to the state average, and both have solid patient ratings. Before you book, call the imaging department at whichever hospital your doctor prefers and confirm they'll honor their cash price if you're self-paying—some facilities only offer it if you ask.
Get the exact cash price in writing before your appointment, since what you see online may not match what billing quotes you over the phone. If cost is a barrier, ask whether the hospital offers financial assistance based on income—many people qualify but don't realize it. Once you've confirmed the final price and any assistance you might get, you can decide whether to schedule there or call one of the lower-priced options to compare.
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.
