Indiana has one of the most concentrated hospital markets in the Midwest, which the FTC has previously flagged as insufficiently competitive. Indiana University Health and Ascension St. Vincent hold significant combined market share in Indianapolis. The lack of robust competition is reflected in commercial reimbursement rates that run above the Midwest average. CT chest pricing is almost entirely driven by site of service - the identical scan costs 3–6× more at a hospital outpatient department than at an independent imaging center. Most commercial payers reimburse at the same negotiated rate regardless of setting, so choosing an independent imaging center captures the full savings without sacrificing clinical quality. For non-urgent scans, calling ahead to compare cash prices across freestanding centers is the single most effective cost lever.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage

A small number of hospitals (14) report prices above $1,246, including Rehab Hospital of Fort Wayne, LLC d/b/a Select Medical Rehabilitation Hospital at Lutheran Hospital at $4,285, which drives most of the overall spread - excluding them, most facilities cluster in a much tighter band. Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $160 versus $542 inpatient (about 3.4× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick. Whether the scan happens in a hospital outpatient department (which adds a separate facility fee) or a freestanding imaging center is usually the single biggest driver of price for this procedure.

On top of the facility price, your actual bill depends on your deductible, your out-of-pocket maximum, and whether every provider involved - not just the facility - is in-network.

How much will I actually pay out of pocket for a CT Chest in Indiana?

Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximum, and whether the facility is in-network - not just the sticker price.
