How do people without insurance pay for a CT scan with contrast, and does this affect their ability to get important medical tests and treatment?
For people, with insurance policies covering CT scans, the only option available is that they pay for the services from their pockets.
A CT scan (computed tomography) typically costs between $300 and $2,000 without insurance at an outpatient imaging facility. If you choose to have the scan done at a hospital, the cost can range from $500 to $7,000 or more. The actual price depends on several factors such as location policies and more.
