The cost of a vasectomy is usually affordable, and may be covered under your health insurance plan. Here's what to expect - and ways to make the procedure fit your family budget.
A vasectomy is considered to be simple - usually done right in the doctor's office - so the cost is comparatively low among surgical procedures. This is an important consideration that should be investigated carefully.
Typically, Dr. Fetner offers the vasectomy consultation, surgery in the office, follow up exam, and two semen checks at six weeks following the procedure at one competitive all inclusive charge. Please contact our office (972) 566-7765 for specific details regarding your own situation and needs. Our pricing is the most competitive in the Dallas area.
Affordability options.
- Check with your medical insurance company, HMO or health plan. Most insurance programs cover a vasectomy, and it may be included in your existing benefits. In such cases, the majority of the cost will be paid through the insurance. The out-of-pocket cost to you could be only a small co-pay or deductible amount.
- Making the payment in cash is the next best option if you don't have insurance coverage. Even if you create a special savings program in your household budget, it should not take long to put aside the total amount needed. A full, cash payment in advance may earn a small discount.
- Our office will accept major credit cards. While this is often convenient, it is also likely to mean an interest or finance charge by the credit card company, and that adds a little to your total cost.
- As you responsibly manage your personal financial affairs, another option may be to pay part of the cost in cash, and pay the balance by way of a credit card.
