Before you schedule

Best value Carilion Stonewall Jackson Hospital — $1,135 3★ CMS rating
You could save $5,860 by choosing the lowest-priced facility
Virginia average $2,324 — prices near Roanoke are below average
Call billing before you schedule Ask: "What is the cash price for this procedure?" — if you haven't met your deductible, it may be hundreds less than going through insurance
Expect a separate bill These are facility fees. Your doctor, radiologist, or anesthesiologist bills separately — ask about those costs too

If you're shopping for a CT chest with contrast in Roanoke, you need to know that prices vary wildly — from about $1,135 to nearly $7,000 — which means where you go matters enormously. Carilion Medical Center sits right at the median price of $1,763 for a cash payment, so if you're uninsured or self-paying, you're looking at a reasonable middle-ground option rather than a bargain or an outlier. The real issue is that some facilities in your area charge six times more than others for the same scan, so calling around before you schedule could save you thousands.

Before you book, call Carilion's billing department and confirm they honor that $1,763 cash price for your specific scan — imaging codes can vary slightly. If cost is your main concern, ask them directly whether they offer financial assistance for people under a certain income; many do but don't advertise it. Then call at least one other facility on your list to compare their cash price so you're not anchoring to the first number you hear.

Questions to ask when you call

"What will my insurance plan pay for this, and what's my out-of-pocket?"

3

"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.
