Limited coverage: Orlando Health's Orlando-area hospitals, including Orlando Regional Medical Center, are not included: Orlando Health's website blocked downloads of its price files when we collected this data. Prices for the Orlando area come only from the AdventHealth, HCA Florida, UF Health and Nemours hospitals listed here, so they may not reflect the whole Orlando market.

with Aetna data

A chest X-ray in Orlando with Aetna ranges from $96.97 at Nemours Children's Hospital, Florida to $1,023.67 at HCA Florida Osceola Hospital, an 11x spread across 10 hospitals. The median negotiated rate is $237.51. Lowest rates often reflect Medicaid or Medicare plans rather than commercial coverage.

Why the range is so wide: Aetna negotiates different rates for different plan types. Medicaid-managed and Medicare Advantage plans typically have the lowest negotiated rates. Commercial PPO and HMO plans are higher. The "lowest rate" at each hospital may be a Medicaid or Medicare plan rate, not a commercial plan rate. The plan type is shown in the table where available.

Reading Aetna Chest X-ray Rates in Orlando

Lowest and highest rates in the table. The lowest published Aetna rates are $96.97 at Nemours Children's Hospital, Florida, and $97.24 at AdventHealth Orlando and AdventHealth Waterman. At the other end, HCA Florida Osceola Hospital lists $1,023.67 as its highest rate, UCF Lake Nona Hospital lists $901.03, and HCA Florida Poinciana Hospital lists $804.08 as its lowest.

Why the numbers vary so much. The spread across hospitals is 11x, and the median of all 26 published rates is $237.51. Several of the lowest rates sit beside Medicare Advantage or Medicare Managed Care plan labels, so the low end likely reflects those plans rather than commercial plans. A member on a commercial plan may see a different figure.

Getting figures for your own plan. These are facility rates, and professional fees are billed separately. Before a visit, a member can ask:

  • Aetna, for the negotiated rate and estimated cost share under their own plan at a named hospital
  • Aetna, whether that hospital is in network for their plan
  • The hospital, for a written estimate

Understanding Aetna Negotiated Rates

A negotiated rate is the price Aetna has agreed to pay a hospital for a specific service. This is not necessarily what you pay out of pocket. If you have met your annual deductible, you typically pay a copay or coinsurance percentage of the negotiated rate. If you have not met your deductible, you may owe the full negotiated rate.

The same insurer often negotiates different rates at different hospitals, and different plan types (HMO, PPO, high-deductible) within the same insurer can have different rates at the same hospital. The table above shows the range across all Aetna plan types at each facility.

Prices shown are facility fees only. You will also receive separate bills from the physician performing the procedure.
