I somewhat disagree about #2: you can (and I have) ask your doctor to get an MRI or X-ray from a standalone imaging center rather than a hospital. That alone can shave about 60% off your bill. The "but only somewhat" part is that if your doctor really prefers a certain imaging provider, they may steer you in that direction. Ultimately, though, it's your call.

Disclosure: I work at Amino, but I'm speaking from personal experience and not for them.
