Before you book: three questions that change the price
- Is this the self-pay price, and does it include the doctor, anesthesia and any lab or pathology? Those are often billed separately.
- Can you give me the price in writing, with the billing codes it covers?
- What happens to the price if something extra is needed during the procedure?

Quick take
- INTEGRIS Edmond is the lowest-cost option at $100 - $78 below the state median, just by choosing where you go.
- Ask for the cash price if your deductible isn't met - the median cash price here is $168, and it's often lower than what insurance pays before your deductible is satisfied.
- Independent imaging centers often charge much less than hospital outpatient departments for the same scan and may not appear in this hospital-only dataset - ask your doctor whether one is an option.

How where you go changes what you pay for ct chest
The same ct chest bundles different services depending on the setting - facility fee, surgeon fee, and anesthesia each arrive as separate bills. Estimated ranges below reflect the typical full bundled cost, including all expected charges.
- Facility fee $63–$3,628
Estimated from CMS fee schedules + commercial rate multipliers
- Facility fee $66–$11,464

- technical_component $169–$353
- professional_interpretation $87–$232
Estimated from CMS fee schedules + commercial rate multipliers
INTEGRIS Health and Mercy (Oklahoma City) and Saint Francis Health System (Tulsa) are the primary players in Oklahoma's two major metro markets. Oklahoma has consistently high uninsured rates, and Medicaid reimbursement has historically been among the lowest in the country, both of which create upward pressure on commercial list prices. 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 $862, including Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Muskogee at $2,410, 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 $162 versus $323 inpatient (about 2× 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.
None of the prices above are what you'll necessarily owe: your deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and each provider's network status all still apply.
| Your situation | Estimated out-of-pocket |
|---|---|
| Deductible not yet met | ~$268 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$54 |
| Out-of-network provider | $590+ |
Frequently asked questions: CT Chest costs in Oklahoma
How much does a CT Chest cost in Oklahoma?
The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $48, with most facilities between $18 and $97 (based on 95 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Full market pricing - including cash rates, gross charges, and outlier facilities - ranges more widely, from $100 to $17,572 across all 101 Oklahoma hospitals that publish prices. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.
Where is the cheapest place to get a CT Chest in Oklahoma?
Based on declared prices, the lowest-cost facility in our Oklahoma data is KIOWA COUNTY HOSPITAL AUTHORITY in Hobart at about $63. By metro, Edmond has the lowest median ($100). Independent imaging centers are often cheaper still and may not appear in hospital price data - ask your doctor whether one is an option.
Why is a CT Chest so much cheaper at some Oklahoma hospitals?
Prices vary up to 175.7× because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Oklahoma, the median cash (self-pay) price is $168 versus a median negotiated rate of $180 - cash is the lower number at many hospitals. Asking for the cash price as well as your insurer's negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on what you pay.
How much will I actually pay out of pocket for a CT Chest in Oklahoma?
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. If you have not met your deductible, you will typically pay the negotiated rate in full until you do. Use the CostKits cost forecaster to estimate your specific out-of-pocket amount before you go.

CT Chest, elsewhere
What matters before you schedule
Imaging center vs. hospital
Hospital outpatient departments typically charge 2-4x more than independent imaging centers for the same ct chest - same outcome, very different bill. The ER charges the most of any setting and should only be used when the situation is medically urgent. Call ahead and ask for a self-pay or cash quote at each setting you're considering.
With vs. without contrast
Which type your doctor orders for this ct chest changes the billing code, and what you pay. For example: A standard ct chest with no contrast dye - the most common and lowest-cost version.
This is shoppable
CT Chest is elective and schedulable, so you have time to compare facilities before booking - hospital outpatient prices often run 2-4x higher than alternative settings for the identical clinical outcome.
What to ask before you book
Get the CPT code from your doctor, confirm every provider involved (not just the facility) is in-network, ask for the cash-pay rate if you're uninsured or haven't met your deductible, and request a written estimate for ct chest before you schedule.
