Last week, we received a call regarding a stationary patient in need of a pre-operative x-Ray. Her insurance was unable to cover ambulance services, requiring her to pay for her transportation out-of-pocket. The problem is that the cost of an ambulance ride can run into the thousands, leaving many patients looking for other options.

The solution is simple: portable x-Ray. For a $150 out-of-pocket fee, which is far more affordable than the cost of transportation along with the cost of the test, we are able to send a licensed and highly experienced x-Ray technician to a patient’s home within an hour of receiving the request. Furthermore, because we utilize high quality state-of-the-art digital radiography technology and the Rapid Radiology IT Platform, we are able to provide reports interpreted by board-certified radiologists within 15 to 30 minutes upon completion of the test.

You should not have to jump hurdles in order to receive affordable necessary care at a time and place that is convenient for you. At K & T Diagnostic, Inc. and K & T Portable X-Ray Solutions, we are working around the clock to make healthcare more accessible, cost-effective, and efficient for patients and physicians alike. We understand that stories like the one above occur on a day-to-day basis and affect thousands of individuals. In today’s world, where we have come to expect everything “on demand,” the one thing that truly cannot wait is your health.
