Price Estimate / Price Transparency
The information provided on price estimates is a good faith estimate and is not a guarantee of what you will be charged. Based on your unique medical condition and needs as determined by your health care provider and insurance coverage, the actual charges may be more or less than the estimate given based on the services received during your visit.
The actual cost will depend upon a variety of factors such as:
- The length of time spent in surgery or recovery
- The number of days spent in the hospital
- Specific equipment
- Supplies and medications required
- Additional tests required by your health care provider
- Any unusual special care or unexpected conditions or complications
These estimates do not include some physician charges (e.g., anesthesiologist, radiologist, pathologist, consulting physicians, etc.)
Call Your Insurance Company
Your insurance company can provide you with the most accurate cost estimate of what you will pay. Please check with your insurance company to see if the service is covered and to see if Northfield Hospital & Clinics is in network with your plan.
- Insurance companies have real-time, consumer-specific information about deductibles, copays and other features of a consumer’s health plan and health care utilization during the plan year.
- Because health insurers negotiate different payment rates for services with each health care provider, including hospitals, physicians and clinics, the best way to compare prices you will pay at your local health care providers is to contact your own insurance company.

COVID-19 Lab Test
COVID testing in clinics is covered by most insurance carriers plus Medicare and MN Medicaid. Patients do not incur the expense. Insurance will be billed for patients who have insurance coverage at the time of testing. If a patient does not have coverage at the time of testing, NH+C tries to seek reimbursement through government funding before billing the patient. The cash price of the COVID-19 diagnostic lab test is $106.
