The Best in Diagnostic Imaging at a Fraction of the Cost

Cost Savings

At Derry Imaging, get the best in diagnostic imaging at a fraction of the cost.

Patient care is our highest priority – and that means caring for the whole patient. There’s enough stress associated with managing your health concerns. We believe that worrying over the cost of your diagnostic testing shouldn’t be one of them.

Did you know that an MRI performed in the hospital Radiology department can cost as much as $3,000? At Derry Imaging, the same MRI scan can be 40% to 70% lower than hospitals in our area. For patients with high deductibles, or paying entirely out of pocket, that price difference can make a huge impact on your budget.

Some important tips for comparing prices:

  • Know the CPT Code for the exam your doctor orders.
  • Find out if the exam is with, without, or both with and without contrast, as this affects the cost.
  • Ask if there are other charges–usually the hospital will charge a technical fee (for the exam), and a separate professional fee (the interpreting the images/reading fee). Be sure you are comparing “apples to apples.”
  • Quality measures–
    • Are the radiologists (the doctors who read the exam) onsite to ensure your safety and provide consultation?
    • Are the radiologists sub-specialized and fellowship-trained in specific areas?
    • Is the facility accredited by the American College of Radiology (ACR)?
    • Are the technologists (the ones who take the images) certified and credentialed?
