Your actual cost depends on: your specific insurance plan, your remaining deductible, your coinsurance percentage, whether you have met your out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility and provider are both in-network, and any separate anesthesia or implant fees billed independently.
This page does not constitute medical advice. Whether you need this procedure, and which approach is right for you, is a decision to make with a licensed healthcare provider.

How to read this data
Negotiated Rate
The discounted price an insurer has agreed to pay a specific provider. Most insured patients' bills are calculated from this number, not the higher list price hospitals publish separately.
P5, Median, P95
P5 is the rate at the 5th percentile (low end), Median is the middle value, and P95 is the 95th percentile (high end). This range shows how much the same visit can vary between providers.
What this does not tell you
These rates do not tell you what you personally will pay out of pocket. That depends on your specific plan, how much of your deductible you have already met, your coinsurance rate, and whether the provider is in your network. Call your insurer's member line to get your exact estimate.
Why CT Abdomen Pelvis Visit Costs Vary Across Arizona
Arizona's healthcare costs run approximately 5% above national averages, driven by the state's growing population and concentrated urban development in the Phoenix and Tucson metropolitan areas. The competitive ambulatory surgery center market creates pricing pressure that benefits patients seeking imaging services across the state.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Arizona's population concentration in the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas creates stark disparities in imaging access between urban and rural regions. Rural counties like Apache, Graham, and Greenlee have limited imaging facilities, often requiring patients to travel significant distances for specialized CT services. This geographic concentration allows urban areas to maintain competitive pricing while rural facilities may charge premium rates due to lower volume and higher operational costs.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based outpatient imaging centers in Arizona typically charge higher facility fees than independent imaging centers due to overhead costs and hospital system pricing structures. Major health systems like Banner Health, HonorHealth, and Dignity Health operate numerous imaging locations with standardized pricing, while independent centers often offer more competitive cash-pay rates. Ambulatory surgery centers focusing on outpatient imaging provide a cost-effective middle ground between hospital-based and independent facilities.
Insurance Market Competition in Arizona
Arizona's competitive insurance market features strong participation from UHC, BCBS Arizona, and Aetna, creating multiple network options for imaging providers. This competition helps maintain reasonable negotiated rates for CT procedures, though individual plan designs vary significantly. The state's lack of an all-payer claims database limits price transparency but the competitive market structure generally benefits patients through lower out-of-pocket costs.
Physician Supply and Demand in Arizona
With over 7,400 providers offering CT Abdomen Pelvis services, Arizona maintains adequate imaging capacity to meet patient demand without significant supply constraints. This robust provider network includes both hospital-employed and independent radiologists, creating competitive pressure that helps moderate pricing. The concentration of providers in urban areas means shorter wait times and more competitive pricing in Phoenix and Tucson, while rural areas may experience longer scheduling delays but often lower facility overhead costs.
