Diagnostic Services and Tests

Average charges are estimates; your out-of-pocket expense will depend on your individual insurance coverage (such as co-insurance or deductibles).

While Cheshire Medical Center (CMC) now encompasses both our hospital’s inpatient services and outpatient clinics, some of our billing charges remain separate. 

Uninsured patients are eligible for a 64% reduction of charges with Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Keene and a 68.5% reduction with Cheshire Medical Center.

Our myDH patient portal website provides estimates for services provided at Dartmouth Health. Estimates can be requested for individual procedures and may factor in your specific insurance to estimate out-of-pocket expenses. Learn more about myDH Estimates.

Additional charges: These charges represent those of Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Keene and CMC. There may be additional charges from other contract providers, such as radiologists and anesthesiologists, depending on the services you receive.
