Affordable CT, X-Ray and Ultrasound
Get the imaging your healthcare provider ordered without insurance delays or surprise bills. Hitchcock Direct Imaging is a fully licensed outpatient imaging center in Hixson offering CT scans, walk-in X-rays and ultrasound with clear, all-inclusive cash prices.
No insurance or Hitchcock membership is required. Every imaging study requires an order from a licensed healthcare provider. Same-day access is often available, depending on the examination and schedule.
Imaging Made Transparent, Accessible, and Affordable
Most imaging centers are built around insurance approvals, unpredictable charges and long scheduling delays. Hitchcock Direct Imaging offers a simpler option: high-quality imaging at a price you know before your visit.
Our published prices include the imaging service, facility costs, applicable contrast, interpretation by a board-certified radiologist, the final report and a digital copy upon request. Patients from any healthcare practice may use our center.
Provider orders are required. Please fax orders to (423) 769-0020. Questions? Call imaging at (423) 456-9134.
Our Approach
We believe diagnostic imaging should give patients answers—not billing surprises. That is why we combine clear prices, rapid access, licensed professionals and dependable radiology interpretation in one straightforward experience.
We’ve simplified the imaging process so you can get the scans you need quickly, affordably, and without insurance hassles.
-
ORDER IMAGING
Ask any licensed healthcare provider to fax your imaging order to (423) 769-0020. You do not need to be a Hitchcock patient.
-
SCHEDULING
We contact CT and ultrasound patients to arrange a convenient appointment. X-ray patients may walk in during imaging hours after we receive the order.
-
GET RESULTS, PAY ONE PRICE
Pay the published all-inclusive price at your visit. A board-certified radiologist interprets the study, and the report is generally sent to the ordering provider within 48–72 hours—often sooner.
