Make Informed Choices

Our Procedure Cost Estimator can help you plan for future expenses and make informed choices about where to receive care. You can research any treatment (like chemotherapy) or procedure (such as a colonoscopy) in any of our in-network facilities, and receive a breakdown of all potential costs, including physician fees, laboratory tests, and medications. You can also see progress toward meeting deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums.

Try it! Simply log into the member portal and use the menu at the left to select the Cost Estimator.

The calculation for out-of-pocket expense is for the current plan year and is a good-faith estimate based on the information members provide. Actual out-of-pocket expenses may vary depending upon many factors, including the intensity of the condition, the complexity of treating the condition, or the medical provider. Estimates are given for procedures performed by in-network providers.
