Prices Colonoscopy MRI CT Scan Mammogram

The cost of colonoscopies, MRIs, CT scans and mammograms can shift a lot from place to place.

It costs $410 less to get an MRI in Summit County than in Cuyahoga County. That's according to data from New Choice Health, a private company that encourages people to become smarter healthcare consumers. The two counties border each other, Cuyahoga County includes the city of Cleveland and the headquarters for MetroHealth Medical Center, University Hospitals and the Cleveland Clinic. These big regional differences have been in the news lately: As the Washington Post wrote last week, "One hospital charges $8,000 - another $38,000." Using the same data as the Post, The New York Times listed out the prices of a series of procedures in hospitals across the country.
