Before you schedule

Best value Chesapeake General Hospital — $1,014 3★ CMS rating
You could save $359 by choosing the lowest-priced facility
Virginia average $2,043 — prices near Hampton 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 getting a CT chest scan in Hampton, your cash price could range from just over $1,000 to nearly $2,900 depending on which hospital you choose—that's nearly triple the cost for the same procedure. Sentara CaresPlex Hospital comes in right at the median price of $1,372.50, which is slightly below the Virginia state average. Before you schedule, call the imaging department at whichever hospital your doctor recommends and ask for their cash price, then compare it to at least one other facility on your list.

Your next step is to find out what your insurance will actually cover. Call your insurance company and ask what they'll pay for a CT chest without contrast at each hospital—the difference between their negotiated price and your out-of-pocket share matters more than the cash price if you're insured. If you're uninsured and that $1,000+ gap is significant for your budget, ask the hospital's financial assistance office whether you qualify; many people don't realize they're eligible for help based on income.

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.

1

"What is your cash price for CT Chest without 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.

2

"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.

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.
