Important: These are cost estimates only — not a quote and not medical advice.
The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 74177 — CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast). They represent what a patient might pay without insurance.
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 New Hampshire
New Hampshire's healthcare costs run approximately 11% above national averages, influenced by the state's small population spread across rural northern counties and concentrated urban areas along the Massachusetts border. The state's proximity to Boston's high-cost medical market creates upward pressure on pricing, while limited provider competition in rural areas further drives costs higher than national norms.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
The Manchester-Nashua corridor and Seacoast region offer multiple imaging options with competitive pricing, while northern counties like Coos and Carroll may have limited facilities requiring longer travel times. Rural areas often depend on critical access hospitals or traveling to urban centers, creating both access challenges and price premiums for specialized imaging services. This geographic disparity means patients in Berlin or Lancaster may pay significantly more than those in Portsmouth or Concord.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based imaging at facilities like Elliot Hospital or Catholic Medical Center typically includes facility fees that independent imaging centers do not charge. Dartmouth-Hitchcock's academic medical center status allows premium pricing for complex cases but may not be cost-effective for routine imaging. Independent imaging centers throughout southern New Hampshire often provide the most competitive pricing for standard CT procedures.
Insurance Market Competition in New Hampshire
Anthem's market dominance alongside Harvard Pilgrim and Cigna creates moderate competition that keeps negotiated rates reasonable but not as competitive as larger states. The relatively small market means fewer plan options and less aggressive rate competition compared to neighboring Massachusetts. This concentrated market structure contributes to the state's above-average healthcare costs across most service categories.
Physician Supply and Demand in New Hampshire
With 3,693 providers offering CT imaging services, New Hampshire maintains adequate radiologist coverage relative to its population of 1.4 million residents. The concentration of specialists in the southern tier near Massachusetts creates geographic imbalances, with excellent access in Rockingham and Hillsborough counties but potential shortages in the North Country. This supply distribution affects both pricing and scheduling, with rural areas experiencing longer wait times and higher costs.
