IS THIS TECHNOLOGY COVERED BY MY INSURANCE?
The FDA approved 3D mammography in February 2011. XRANM was the first in New Mexico to offer this technology and is offering this service in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Alamogordo and Farmington, NM. Most insurances have elected to cover this service as a preventive service for their members. For those insurances that are not currently being covered, we are offering this technology to patients as a voluntary addition to their traditional 2D mammogram at a self pay cost of $60 plus tax. This fee helps offset the cost of offering this new technology and includes the radiologist interpretation of the additional 3D imaging.
SERVICE LOCATIONS
Tomosynthesis is available at the Breast Imaging Center, XRANM Farmington, Northwest Imaging Center, Alamogordo Imaging Center and X-Ray Associates at Santa Fe.
