with Humana data

Humana chest X-ray rates in San Antonio vary dramatically, with a 7x spread from $42.19 at Methodist Hospital to $277 at CHRISTUS Children's across 13 facilities. The median rate sits at $82.68, though lowest rates often reflect Medicaid or Medicare plans rather than commercial coverage.

Why the range is so wide: Humana 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.

Rates shown are Humana's published negotiated rates from each hospital's CMS transparency file. "Lowest rate" is the lowest rate across all Humana plan types (including Medicaid-managed and Medicare Advantage) at that hospital. Commercial plan rates are typically higher. Your actual cost depends on your specific plan's deductible, copay, and coinsurance.

Understanding Humana Negotiated Rates

A negotiated rate is the price Humana 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 Humana plan types at each facility.

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