Cost Estimator Tool

Cost Estimator Tool

Different facilities charge different prices for the same procedure, which means you could be overpaying for care. Knowing your out-of-pocket costs before your care could save you thousands. After all, you wouldn't book a vacation without first knowing the cost. Shouldn't the same apply to your health care? Priority Health's newest tool, the Cost Estimator, combines doctor and facility pricing information with your personal benefit and deductible balances to give a close estimate of your out-of-pocket costs, giving you a say in how you spend you health dollars.
