Are there additional fees beyond the ct scan facility charge?

Yes. The facility charge on this page covers the hospital's side of the scan. Other bills commonly connected with a CT scan include a separate professional fee from the radiologist who interprets the images, charges for contrast material or related supplies, and fees from a referring or ordering physician's office visit. If an emergency department or outpatient department is involved, a separate facility or visit charge may also apply. Itemized bills and each provider's own price information show which of these apply to a specific visit.
