How Much Does Medicare Pay For An X-Ray? 
An x-ray is covered under Medicare Part B. Medicare will pay for 80 % of the Medicare-approved amount for the expense after the Part B deductible is met -LRB- $ 147 in 2014 -RRB- - you would be responsible for the other 20 % and the Part B deductible . When you first enroll in Medicare Part B , you open your 6-month initial open enrollment period to buy a Medicare supplement plan -LRB- a.k.a. Medigap plan -RRB- with NO MEDICAL UNDERWRITING ! . A Medigap plan can cover the deductibles and a portion or all of the other 20 % of expenses covered by Part B and features a number of other big advantages as well . An experienced broker can help find the plan that 's most suitable for you and your budget . Please let me know if I can be of help . Thanks very much .
