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

Aetna's negotiated MRI rates in Orlando span a 17x range, from $266.61 at AdventHealth Orlando to $4,581.85 at UCF Lake Nona Hospital. The median across 10 hospitals is $1,947. The lowest rate reflects a Medicare Managed Care plan, so commercial plan rates are typically higher.

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.

Aetna MRI spread and median in Orlando. The spread on this page is 17x, and the median of all 86 published Aetna rates for this procedure at these hospitals is $1,947.

Calls for an Orlando MRI estimate. A member can ask:

  • Aetna for their own plan's negotiated rate and estimated cost share at a named hospital
  • Aetna whether that hospital is in network for their plan
  • The hospital for an estimate

These 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.
