How much will this cost?
Cost and insurance coverage can be deciding factors for where and when to receive medical care. To answer some of these questions, you can direct those seeking care at Mayo Clinic to contact the Patient Estimating Service or they can use the online cost estimator tool. It's impossible to predict final charges, but an estimate can give a better idea of what to expect and prepare for that financially.
To use the cost estimator tool:
- Visit the cost estimator tool website.
- Type in the procedure or test you want to estimate.
- Select the closest search result.
- Follow prompts to provide more information, such as location and insurance information.
- Select "Continue" and review the estimate.
Does Mayo Clinic accept my insurance?
