3. Insurance and Authorization
| MDC supports
national evidence-based guidelines for the appropriate use of diagnostic
imaging procedures, including those described in the reference text
Medical Imaging Consultant, 3rd Edition by Orrison et.al. |
Insurance companies work together with doctors and diagnostic imaging
facilities to help ensure that the right test is done at the right time.
They know that the best way to keep costs down is to use only the best type of
test for a specific condition. Some insurance plans require that
certain diagnostic imaging tests be Authorized by their representative before
they will agree to pay for a procedure.

| With very few
exceptions, MDC accepts virtually all insurance plans. |
MDC
will help you work with your doctor's office and insurance company to make
sure that your insurance coverage is considered before the test is performed. |
| Conventional x-ray procedures--and all other
tests--are performed with attention to quality, privacy, and accuracy. |
