    Medicare will cover any medically necessary diagnostic tests you need. This includes computed tomography (CT) scans.

    Your exact coverage depends on where you have the test and which Medicare part covers it.

    • a hospital
    • a skilled nursing facility
    • another inpatient facility

    This includes any tests your doctor orders during your stay. So, if you receive a CT scan in the hospital, Part A will cover it.
