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 Vermont
Vermont's healthcare costs run approximately 15% above the national average, reflecting the state's rural geography and limited provider competition. The concentration of major medical facilities around Burlington creates cost disparities between urban and rural areas throughout the Green Mountain State.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Burlington and surrounding Chittenden County contain the majority of Vermont's advanced imaging facilities, creating higher demand and pricing power. Rural areas like the Northeast Kingdom rely on mobile imaging services or require patients to travel significant distances for CT scans. This geographic concentration allows urban providers to maintain premium pricing while rural patients face additional travel costs.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
The University of Vermont Medical Center's dominance in Burlington creates a hospital-centric imaging market with higher facility fees. Independent imaging centers like those operated by regional radiology groups offer more competitive pricing but have limited geographic presence. Vermont's small market size makes it difficult for national imaging chains to establish cost-competitive operations.
Insurance Market Competition in Vermont
BCBS VT and MVP Health Care control most of Vermont's commercial insurance market, limiting competitive pressure on negotiated imaging rates. This duopoly structure allows insurers to maintain relatively standardized reimbursement rates across providers. The lack of major national insurers in Vermont's market reduces the pricing competition seen in larger states.
Physician Supply and Demand in Vermont
With 354 active CT Abdomen Pelvis providers serving Vermont's 650,000 residents, the state maintains adequate radiologist availability relative to population. However, subspecialty expertise in advanced abdominal imaging remains concentrated in Burlington, creating longer wait times and higher costs for complex cases. The stable provider supply prevents the severe shortages seen in other rural states but doesn't create downward pricing pressure.
