Spend less on Your Radiology Exam.
Before scheduling a radiology exam at an expensive hospital-owned center, it is important to know that you have options.
The average price for a CT or MRI performed in a hospital-owned center is $1,855.* By switching your MRI exam from a hospital-owned center, to a high-quality, lower-cost outpatient imaging center, you can significantly reduce your payment, saving you $950 per exam. Furthermore, switching your CT exam can also significantly reduce your cost, saving you $820.**
Major insurance carriers such as Cigna, Anthem, and UnitedHealthcare are decreasing the specific allowable CT and MRI procedure codes that are covered in a hospital-owned center. Insurers learned that their members could maintain or exceed the quality and convenience of their service experience, while spending less when visiting outpatient imaging centers, like Borg & Ide Imaging.
