SimonMed Poinciana, at 875 Cypress Parkway in Poinciana, FL, runs DEXA scans for the Poinciana area. Call (407) 944-2220 or book through Dexascans.com to schedule your appointment.
How much does a DEXA scan cost in Poinciana?
$149 for a body composition scan, $199 for a bone density test, or $249 for the package that covers both plus visceral fat. Those are the prices booked through Dexascans.com for Poinciana, with no added fees. HSA and FSA payments are accepted.
Do I need a referral for a DEXA scan in Poinciana?
Not for a body composition scan — you can book that at SimonMed Poinciana directly. A bone density scan billed to insurance usually needs a physician's order, though if you pay cash for it, no referral is required either.
Does insurance cover DEXA scans in Poinciana, Florida?
Often, yes, but only for bone density. If a physician orders the scan as medically necessary, say after a referral from a doctor at a Polk County health system like HCA Florida Poinciana Hospital & AdventHealth Heart of Florida, insurance usually covers it. Body composition scans booked for fitness reasons are self-pay. HSA and FSA cards work for both.
Which communities near Poinciana do you serve?
Besides Poinciana, we book scans for people in Kissimmee, Orlando, Lakeland and Winter Garden, and across the rest of Polk County (863/407 area).
Is a DEXA scan safe in Poinciana?
Yes. A DEXA scan at SimonMed Poinciana delivers roughly a tenth the radiation of a chest X-ray, less than you absorb from natural background sources in a normal day. Nothing touches you and nothing is injected. You lie still for 10-15 minutes.
What does a full body DEXA scan measure in Poinciana?
Total and regional body fat percentage, how lean muscle is distributed across your arms, legs, and trunk, visceral fat around the organs, and bone mineral density. All of it from one 10-minute scan at SimonMed Poinciana.
How long does a DEXA scan appointment take in Poinciana?
Budget about 30 minutes including check-in at SimonMed Poinciana. The scan itself runs 10-15 minutes. Your results report arrives within 24 hours.
What is the difference between a DXA scan and a DEXA scan?
Nothing. Both stand for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. DXA is what clinicians write, DEXA is what most people say, and SimonMed Poinciana runs the same test under either name. Same test, same machine.
