Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about mobile diagnostic ultrasound with UltraVision Imaging — referrals, pricing, at-home visits, and results. Have a question we haven’t answered? Call or text (916) 751-1944.
Referrals & Booking
Do I need a doctor’s referral to book?
No referral is needed for the vast majority of our services — you can book directly. A physician’s order is only required for DVT (deep vein thrombosis) studies and second-trimester OB ultrasounds. Call (916) 751-1944 if you’re not sure which applies to you.
How do I schedule an appointment?
Book online at ultravisionimaging.com or call/text (916) 751-1944. We offer same-week and often next-day scheduling across the Sacramento and Placer County area.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Often same or next day. We hold flexible scheduling for urgent orders and recurring facility coverage — just call and we’ll find the soonest available slot.
Pricing, Insurance & Payment
How much is an ultrasound without insurance?
We’re cash-pay with transparent, upfront pricing — most studies run from the high $300s to $525, with discounted screening bundles available. Full pricing is at ultravisionimaging.com.
Do you take insurance?
We’re a cash-pay concierge service, which keeps pricing simple and transparent with no surprise bills. We can provide an itemized superbill you may submit to your insurance or HSA/FSA.
What payment methods do you accept?
All major credit and debit cards, checks, and HSA/FSA cards. We are not cash-only.
At-Home Visits & Service Area
Do you really come to my home?
Yes — we’re fully mobile. We bring ARDMS-certified diagnostic ultrasound to your home, clinic, or care facility. No transportation needed.
What areas do you serve?
Rocklin, Roseville, Auburn, Lincoln, Loomis, Granite Bay, El Dorado Hills and the greater Sacramento area, with extended coverage across Northern California. Ask about coverage for your city.
Is there an extra fee for at-home visits?
On-site service is built into our pricing for our core coverage area. For locations farther out we’ll quote any travel in advance — no surprises.
What do I need to prepare for an at-home scan?
Very little — just a quiet, private space to lie down. Some studies (like abdominal) require fasting; we’ll send simple prep instructions when you book.
Your Scan & What to Expect
What types of ultrasound do you offer?
Vascular, abdominal, OB/GYN, pelvic, breast, thyroid, and musculoskeletal studies, plus preventive cardiovascular and full-body longevity screenings.
How long does an ultrasound take?
Most single studies take 20–45 minutes. Our multi-scan screening bundles run about an hour, all done on-site.
Is an ultrasound safe? Does it use radiation?
Ultrasound uses sound waves, not radiation, so it’s completely safe and painless — one reason it’s ideal for at-home and bedside imaging.
Can I get a preventive screening if I feel healthy?
Yes. Our cardiovascular and longevity screenings are designed for proactive, symptom-free patients to catch issues like carotid plaque or an aortic aneurysm early. No referral needed.
Results
How fast do I get my results?
Your scan is read by a board-certified radiologist and the report is typically back within 24 hours.
Will my doctor get the report too?
Yes — we send the radiologist-reviewed report to you and to your referring provider so care continues smoothly.
For Clinics & Facilities
Can you provide ultrasound for a skilled nursing facility or clinic?
Yes — we provide recurring on-site imaging for SNFs, urgent cares, and specialty clinics with custom scheduling and fast radiologist reports. Contact us to set up facility coverage.
Are your sonographers certified?
Every scan is performed by an ARDMS-certified sonographer and interpreted by a board-certified radiologist — hospital-grade quality delivered on-site.
Still have questions?
We’re happy to help you find the right scan or set up facility coverage.
