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.

# CT Chest with Contrast — High Point, NC
Your cash price for a CT chest with contrast in High Point runs between $1,229 and $1,719 depending on where you go — that's a $490 spread for the same scan. High Point Regional Health System charges $1,266, which is right in the middle of that range and about 30% higher than the state average of $963. Before you book, call their billing department and ask specifically what they'd charge you as a self-pay patient; that $1,266 is their standard cash price, but some facilities offer discounts if you pay upfront, and it's worth asking.
Here's what to do now: first, confirm your insurance actually covers this scan at your preferred location — sometimes imaging requires pre-authorization. Second, if you're uninsured or considering self-pay, get a written quote from at least one other facility in the area (there are several options nearby) so you can compare. Third, ask High Point Regional whether they have financial assistance if cost is tight; many hospitals cap what they charge based on income, and you won't know unless you ask.
