* Hospitals marked with * publish cash prices equal to their gross charges, meaning no separate self-pay discount appears in their transparency file. The insured rates shown are negotiated rates between the hospital and specific insurance plans. Uninsured patients may be able to negotiate lower rates by contacting the hospital directly.

What These Prices Mean

Understanding the price columns: The gross charge represents the hospital's list price before any discounts. Cash prices show what uninsured patients pay upfront. BSW facilities offer significant cash discounts, charging $364.65 cash versus $607.75 gross (a 40% discount). Medical City facilities charge their full gross price as the cash price, ranging from $908.22 to $1,481.17 with no cash discount. The insured range shows negotiated rates with insurance companies. Patients on high-deductible plans who have not met their deductible will owe the negotiated rate, which varies significantly by insurer. Code coverage details: HCPCS code 71046 specifically covers a complete chest X-ray examination with two views, which provides more comprehensive imaging than a single-view chest X-ray. The two-view approach allows radiologists to better visualize chest structures by capturing images from multiple angles, reducing the chance of missing abnormalities that might be obscured in a single view.

Why Chest X-ray Prices Vary

Hospital pricing structures: Gross charges vary dramatically, from $607.75 at BSW facilities to $1,481.17 at Medical City McKinney, representing a $873.42 gap. However, cash prices show an even wider spread of $1,116.52 ($364.65 to $1,481.17) because BSW facilities offer 40% cash discounts while Medical City facilities charge full gross prices to cash patients. The BSW system applies consistent pricing across all locations, while Medical City facilities have varying gross charges but maintain 100% gross-to-cash ratios. Facility type and alternatives: The data includes general medical centers, heart hospitals, and university medical centers, all showing pricing patterns based on their health system rather than facility type. Academic medical centers like Baylor University Medical Center follow the same BSW pricing structure. Outpatient imaging centers and freestanding radiology facilities, which are not included in this hospital transparency data, may offer different pricing structures and could potentially provide different cost options for this common imaging procedure.

What Patients Ask About Chest X-ray Costs

How much does a chest x-ray cost without insurance in Dallas-Fort Worth?

Cash prices for chest X-rays in Dallas-Fort Worth range from $364.65 to $1,481.17 without insurance. All BSW facilities (including All Saints Fort Worth, Medical Centers in Centennial, Grapevine, Irving, Lake Pointe, McKinney, Plano, Waxahachie, and Frisco, Heart Hospitals, and Baylor University Medical Center) charge $364.65. Medical City facilities range from $908.22 at Frisco, Plano, and Sachse locations up to $1,481.17 at McKinney. Code 71046 covers the complete two-view chest X-ray examination. These facility fees cover the imaging procedure itself but are separate from the radiologist's professional fee for reading and interpreting the images, which is billed separately by the physician.

Why is the gross charge so much higher than the cash price?

The gross charge represents the hospital's official list price, but almost no one actually pays this amount. BSW facilities demonstrate this clearly: their $607.75 gross charge drops to $364.65 for cash patients, representing a 40% discount. Medical City facilities take a different approach, setting their cash prices equal to their gross charges, ranging from $908.22 to $1,481.17 with no cash discount offered. The gross charge serves as the starting point for insurance negotiations, but insurance companies negotiate significantly lower rates. Even when BSW offers a larger percentage discount than Medical City (40% versus 0%), Medical City's higher starting gross charges still result in higher final cash prices for patients paying out of pocket.

Does insurance cover a chest x-ray?

Insurance coverage for chest X-rays depends on your specific plan terms and plan coverage requirements as determined by your physician. Insurance companies have negotiated rates ranging from $33.75 to $1,481.17, showing significant variation between plans and insurers. For non-emergency imaging, some insurance plans require prior authorization before the procedure. If you have a high-deductible health plan and have not yet met your annual deductible, you will be responsible for paying the insurance company's negotiated rate rather than the hospital's gross charge. This negotiated rate can vary substantially depending on your specific insurance plan and the hospital where the procedure is performed, making it important to verify coverage details with your insurer beforehand.

Are there additional fees beyond the chest x-ray facility charge?

The facility fees shown cover the hospital's charges for the X-ray equipment, imaging room, and technologist services, but additional professional fees apply. A radiologist will separately bill for reading and interpreting the chest X-ray images, which is a distinct professional service from the facility's technical component. If the chest X-ray is performed in an emergency department setting, separate emergency room facility fees will also apply beyond the imaging charges. These additional fees are billed separately from the facility charges and are not included in the hospital transparency pricing data. The radiologist's interpretation fee and any emergency department fees will appear as separate line items on your final bill, typically from different billing entities than the hospital facility charge.
