Frequently asked questions
Is a DEXA scan covered by insurance?
It's covered for bone density if you have risk factors. For body composition, insurance rarely covers it, so you'll pay out-of-pocket.
What affects the cost of DEXA Scans?
Geographic location, facility type (hospital vs. standalone), and whether a doctor's order is required. Add-ons like consultations increase cost.
How can I find a cheaper scan?
Shop around at imaging centers, ask for cash prices, or look for university research studies that offer discounted scans.
