Self Pay Pricing

The expanded self-pay pricing list includes a number of additional lab procedures and tests. Please note the great pricing on Heart Screenings at $99 per individual and $149 per couple. 

These prices will run through Dec. 31, 2011. The prices require cash payment in full at the time of service. No payment or installment plans are offered with these rates. This pricing will be offered to all eligible patients (as indicated on the following price list). Medicaid and Medicare patients are not eligible.

We believe that this new self-pay pricing structure for Imaging and Laboratory Services will address the rising number of individuals who are uninsured or have high-deductible health plans and remove a barrier that may be keeping your patients from getting the tests they need.

I think you will agree that this pricing is some of the best in the market.  Please help us by referring your eligible patients who can take advantage of this pricing. This change should make us more competitive with the independent diagnostic centers.

Our Physician Relations team will be visiting physician offices to discuss this new pricing and will provide you with order form pads that include WellStar imaging and laboratory locations.  If you have questions, please contact Carol Scoggins, Executive Director with Diagnostic Outreach at 678-581-5874.
