How far apart the rates land, and why. The spread across the 10 hospitals is 10x, and the median of all 19 published Aetna rates is $1,860.54. Several of the lowest rows are labeled Medicare Managed Care or Medicare Advantage, so the low end likely reflects those plans rather than commercial plans. The plan behind a rate is not always clear from the label alone.
Calls a member can place before a scan. A member can contact:
- Aetna, for their own plan's negotiated rate and estimated cost share at a named hospital, and to confirm whether that hospital is in network for their plan.
- The hospital, for an estimate.
These figures are facility rates, and professional fees are billed separately.

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.
