If you're getting a chest CT in Roanoke, your out-of-pocket price could range from under $950 to over $6,200 depending on which hospital you choose—a difference of more than $5,000 for the exact same scan. Before you schedule, call the billing department at whichever hospital your doctor recommends and ask for the cash price for your chest CT without contrast. Then call one or two other facilities on your list and do the same. You may find that paying cash upfront costs significantly less than your insurance copay or deductible.

Once you have prices, ask each billing office whether they offer financial assistance programs if cost is a concern—many hospitals do but don't advertise them. If your doctor hasn't specified a location yet, you have real leverage to choose based on price. Get the cash quote in writing before you go in, so there are no surprises at checkout.
