How much will I pay?
You want to know how much your medical care will cost before you see the doctor or get the bill. This helps eliminate surprises. And it allows you to plan for upcoming health needs.
This page provides the average, range and maximum cost for about 50 of the most common procedures at Brij Health. We can provide average cost information. Then you can work with your insurance company to estimate what you’ll pay. Some preventive services are covered 100 percent by your insurance, which means there’s no cost to you.
Your deductible, coinsurance and copay all affect what you’ll pay.
How do I estimate my cost?
In order to provide accurate cost information, each procedure has five numbers associated with it.
- CPT: CPT stands for Current Procedural Terminology. Your doctor uses this code to bill the insurance company. It tells the insurance company what services you received. Each service has a different code.
- Average: This is the average amount patients pay for this procedure. You and your insurance company may split this cost. Your deductible, coinsurance, copay and coverage affect how much you’ll pay. If you have questions about your insurance, call your insurance company.
- Range: Just like the cost of milk varies depending where you buy it, the cost of procedures changes depending on your insurance. We use information from four major insurance companies to determine the range.
- Maximum: This is the most you’ll pay for this procedure if you get insurance through HealthPartners, Blue Cross Blue Shield, PreferredOne or Medica. You may be expected to pay this if you haven’t met your deductible.
- Medicare payment: If you have Medicare, this is the most you’ll pay for this procedure. Depending on your Medicare plan, you may not be expected to pay anything.
If you have additional procedures or services, there may be additional cost. For example, let’s say you go to the doctor for a routine preventive care visit. While you’re there, you ask the doctor to look at a mole. There may be an additional charge for that.
These clinic costs reflect data from HealthPartners, Blue Cross Blue Shield, PreferredOne and Medica. If you have insurance through one of those companies, these good faith estimates should be accurate. If you have another insurance company, your cost may be different.

Office Visit (for routine or preventative care)
These costs reflect data from HealthPartners, Blue Cross Blue Shield, PreferredOne and Medica. These numbers are good faith estimates.
Preventive visits are recommended for everyone. However, different services are needed at different ages. For example, an infant may need several shots. A teenage boy may only need a physical exam. And a 50-year-old woman may need a mammogram. As a result, your age affects the cost of your office visit.
Some preventive services are covered 100 percent by your insurance, which means there’s no cost to you. Note: Medicare does not cover preventive care.
