Has anyone had a low dose lung CT scan in Quito?聽 If yes, name of the medical facility and price would be appreciated.

This is a procedure that is recommended for ex smokers.聽 In the USA, Medicare will pay for it.

Thanks,
Liz

So if Medicare covers it, go back and get in the states. What鈥檚 the problem?

I don't know about Quito - but you can read about an expat getting a CT scan in Guayaquil, for a bit over $700, here:

You could try calling hospitals and clinics in and around Quito.
