Best for

Someone with a doctor's order for a scan who has been quoted a price they cannot pay.

Why Kave includes this

The quoted price includes the radiologist's read, which is the charge that turns an advertised $400 MRI into a $900 bill two weeks later. Kave rates it well on transparency for that reason specifically, and pairs it with the hospital price transparency files so a user can compare a package price against their own hospital's published cash rate.

Expected cost
A single prepaid price per study, stated before booking and including the radiologist's interpretation.
Insurance requirement
Cash-pay. Does not bill insurance, and will generally not count toward a deductible.
Who qualifies
Requires a physician's order for the study. No income test.
Where it is available
Nationwide (United States)
How you use it
In person
Languages

Limitations Kave wants you to know about

  • You must already have an order from a clinician.
  • Centre availability varies by metropolitan area.
  • Paying cash usually means it does not count toward your deductible — check first if you are close to meeting one.
  • Contrast, sedation, and follow-up are not always included.
