A success story of pricing-out imaging!
I needed two MRIs, one for my back and knee:
Total for MRIs at the hospital (where my doctor is located): $3,000+ ($2,000 deductible and 90% payment after that)
Total for MRIs at a private MRI center 5 minutes farther down the road: $400
I found the private MRI center on my insurance's website, which conveniently had the prices listed for each procedure. I then called both to confirm their prices.
