Jersey City Imaging Center accepts all major insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid. We also welcome self-pay patients with a prescription. Either way, we confirm your exact cost before your appointment so there are no surprises.
No facility fees. No hidden charges. Quotes within one business day.
Most patients at Jersey City Imaging Center use insurance, and most pay only their plan’s standard co-pay or coinsurance. We accept all major insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid. That means you avoid out-of-network fees and the surprise bills that come with them.
Here is what to expect:
When you book, our team verifies your specific insurance plan and confirms coverage for the scan your doctor ordered. If your insurance requires pre-authorization, we handle the paperwork on your behalf. You will know your expected out-of-pocket cost before you arrive.
You will be asked to pay your plan’s co-pay or coinsurance. This is the amount your insurance plan requires you to contribute, and it is typically a small percentage of the total cost depending on whether you have met your annual deductible.
Your insurance is billed directly. If there is any remaining balance, you will receive a statement that matches what we discussed at scheduling. No surprises.
We verify coverage before every appointment. If anything is unusual about your plan or your scan order, we tell you in advance.
Jersey City Imaging Center welcomes self-pay patients. If you do not have insurance, are between plans, or simply prefer to pay directly for your scan, we make the process simple and transparent.
Here is how self-pay works at JCIC:
New Jersey law requires a prescription from a licensed physician for diagnostic imaging. We accept prescriptions from any licensed provider, including your primary care doctor, urgent care, specialist, chiropractor, or physical therapist.
Tell us the modality your doctor ordered (MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray, or DEXA) and the body part being scanned. Our billing team prepares a written quote and sends it to you within one business day.
Your quote includes the radiologist interpretation, your formal written report, and image access. No hidden fees added later.
When you arrive, the price you were quoted is the price you pay.
No facility fees. No surprise bills. The number we quote you is the number you pay. The only exceptions are clinical situations like a need for contrast dye or additional views, and we always disclose those to you in advance.
Whether you are using insurance or paying out of pocket, every scan at Jersey City Imaging Center includes:
The following are priced separately and disclosed in advance whenever they apply:
