Local Options

For anyone with insurance that covers most of the cost of things like x-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds, the Olympic Medical Center is the most convenient option.  Unfortunately, for those of us with high deductible plans or no insurance, we have to pay for most of our testing out of pocket (even though we pay unfairly high premiums to the insurance companies for that coverage).  A more transparent and affordable option is RAYUS Radiology (formerly InHealth Imaging).  They have several locations, their closest being Poulsbo.  While the drive may be less convenient, the service is very personal and professional.  The radiologist actually meets personally with most patients after their imaging study, and their prices cannot be beat (and are not hidden).  They negotiate lower prices with insurance AND typically offer a 40% discount for anyone paying out of pocket!  

For example, a typical 2-view chest x-ray locally might cost a little over $200 (and maybe less depending on your insurance plan).  The same x-ray at RAYUS Radiology would be billed to your insurance at closer $104 and if you decided to pay out of pocket instead of using insurance, it might only cost $65!

A wonderful and affordable local option for imaging of a person's blood vessels is Pacific Vascular, located in both Port Angeles and Sequim. For anyone needing to see a vascular surgeon, this is the imaging facility that will likely be used.
