CT Lung Screening in New York City: The Best Early Detection Tool for Smokers and Former Smokers

CT Lung Screening in New York City: The Best Early Detection Tool for Smokers and Former Smokers

If you are a smoker or former smoker living in New York City, it's important to be aware of your risk for lung cancer. One of the most effective ways to catch lung cancer early is through a Low-Dose CT Lung Screening (also called a CT Lung Scan). Available in Manhattan at an affordable rate, this test is a proven method to detect signs of lung cancer before symptoms appear.

What Is a CT Lung Screening?

A Low-Dose CT Lung Scan is a quick, non-invasive imaging test that uses low radiation to produce detailed images of your lungs. The test takes less than 10 minutes and can identify small nodules or early signs of lung cancer—often long before you feel sick.

This screening is especially recommended for:

  • Adults ages 50 to 80

  • Smokers or former smokers with a 20+ pack-year history

  • Individuals who quit smoking within the past 15 years

Insurance Coverage in NYC: What to Know

Many commercial insurance providers in NYC, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), Cigna, MagnaCare, and United Healthcare, offer coverage for CT Lung Screening—but with some limitations. These often include:

  • In-plan deductibles

  • Copays and coinsurance

  • Delays due to pre-authorization requirements

Even with insurance, patients in New York City often face high out-of-pocket costs and wait times for approval. It may not make financial sense to delay care only to pay the same or more in the end.
