How to find info on what your treatment's cost might be!

This page was developed to help make the best decisions on taking care of your health

 • Mayo Clinic experts share great treatment info & insights on various diseases and symptoms. There is also a First Aid Guide on handling medical emergencies. 


 • The National Library of Medicine, the National Institutes of Health, and other organizations created the MedLinePlus site:

   +  It is an informative health information resource and extensive medical treatment information. Plus, it is easy to use. 


   + Useful info on herbal remedies and supplements. These treatment alternatives can sometimes be effective but can also have harmful effects! Learn more about evidence-based info on the most popular supplements.



• Today, medical situations can result in "high" treatment costs, and the same treatment can vary significantly between different providers! Even in a local area!  


What to do? When an MD says non-emergency treatment is needed, I recommend using  Fair Health's system to check costs: 

• There are videos on how to use it.

• You can check providecostsst in your area by selecting the following: 

     — green medical cost button then: 

     — in network bullet (more economical ) and Next below it 

     — enter your zip code 

     — one of the 24 blue buttons for the type of medical situation you are interested in 

     — you see one or more pages (usually) with additional choices 


Then tell your MD you found the cost would be $_____ and would like to know their cost since you have a high deductible medical plan!

 

 •   In addition to checking the cost when any "elective" or non-emergency treatment is proposed— I also recommend getting a second opinion!   

       Why? 37% of the time, the second opinion suggested a change!
