Disclaimer
The NYC Health Department is committed to empowering New York City residents and employees to make informed health care decisions. This tool offers personalized estimates for common health services, providing a clearer picture of potential costs before your visit.
Your final out-of-pocket cost may vary based on your insurance coverage, any discounts, and the specific care you receive. Contact the provider directly to verify your estimate.
What’s the difference between an individual procedure and a Standard Service Package (SSP)?
Individual Procedure
Individual procedures, like blood tests, each have unique prices and billing codes (like a CPT or HCPCS code). While they can be billed alone, they're usually grouped with other procedures on a claim. This grouping is what determines the total cost of your care.
Standard Service Package (SSP)
Turquoise Health has developed SSPs which combine multiple medical services, materials, and fees associated with a health care visit or procedure into a single bundle to offer a more comprehensive estimate. SSPs are designed based on how health care procedures are commonly billed on claims. When discussing estimates with healthcare providers, you can refer to the individual codes listed in the 'Procedures included in this package' section of the tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I make the most of the information provided?
Do my search results include all providers in NYC that offer the service I'm looking for?
Why isn't my insurance plan listed?
We prioritize the most common commercial insurance plans for NYC residents and employees. If your plan isn't listed, let us know — we're working to expand our coverage.
You should not use this tool to compare prices if you are enrolled in a Medicare or Medicaid plan. Contact Medicare or New York Medicaid directly for more information.
What if I can't find the service I'm looking for?
What does the estimated price include?
For individual services, the price reflects a single line item.
A single service may not reflect the full cost of a medical visit or procedure. Most care involves multiple services billed together and the total price depends on that full set of services.
For service packages, the estimate includes facility fees (for hospital overhead) and sometimes professional fees (for services from doctors, nurses, or lab staff).
Service package estimates include the services most commonly provided during this type of care. We list them to give you the most accurate cost estimate possible.
Your actual treatment may differ, which could affect the actual cost. Use this estimate as a guide and contact the provider directly to confirm pricing.
Your final out-of-pocket responsibility will be a combination of your insurance benefits and the price the provider has negotiated with your insurance plan.
What do the different codes in my estimate mean?
What is Turquoise Health?
The NYC Health Department has partnered with Turquoise Health to develop this tool to help New Yorkers understand health care prices.
How does Turquoise Health determine price accuracy?
I'm using insurance. How do I estimate my out-of-pocket cost vs. what I can expect insurance to cover?
How often is information in the tool added or updated?
Do I need to provide any personal information for an estimate?
You may choose to enter your insurance information into the calculator on service pages to estimate your out-of-pocket costs, but this information will not be stored.
My health plan has out-of-network benefits. Can I use this tool to see prices for out-of-network hospitals and facilities?
Some health plans (like PPOs or POS plans) may cover out-of-network care, but those costs are usually much higher and depend on what your insurance agrees to pay. Other health plans (like HMOs or EPOs) only cover in-network care.
