Shoulder problems, how much $$ is an MRI and X-ray?

I have dignified deductible health insurance, so if I move about to the hospital, I will end up paying most of it.
If anybody have had an MRI or an X-ray, do you remember what the cost be, or would have be if you paid it yourself?Shoulder problems, how much $$ is an MRI and X-ray?
xray $250.00
mri $2500.00
I've have many MRI's done and they are expensive. My insurance covers a large amount, but I still had to pay packet about $600 out of pocket.
These test are pricey. Has the dr. ordered these tests? Do you enjoy any type of health insurance? you might amount close to $1000.00+/-
My best advice is to hail as around to facilities contained by your area. I work contained by a free standing imaging facility, and the prices quoted by your first answerer are pretty close to what we charge. But, the hospital in our same town charges almost double that. Another hospital, give or take a few 30 miles from my town, charges less than we do. Also, prices will change, not only from facility to facility, but from state to state. I would create some phone calls and find the best price. If you are getting prices from a hospital, net sure you get both prices. They will charge a professional charge (for the doctor's reading) and a separate exact charge (for the actual exam).
