ABORTION
We offer the presumptive eligibility program also known as PE. This is a Medi-Cal program that among its services provides temporary abortion care to eligible low-income women and teens. With PE you can receive services for miscarriage or abortion immediately and for free. Any California resident who believes that they are pregnant and whose family income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level is eligible for this program. Call now to see if you qualify.
For those who do not qualify for the PE program the following fees apply:
The
Non-Surgical procedure (Medical Abortion) fee is $470.
This includes the initial consultation,
the preliminary ultrasound to determine the exact weeks and location of
pregnancy, and the cost of the medications used in the office such as the RU-486
and the misoprostol.
The $470 also includes all follow-up visits in the Brandeis
Medical Center to ensure a completion of non-surgical abortion. The $470 also
includes any surgical procedure performed in the Brandeis Medical Center as a
follow-up of the non-surgical abortion.
The $470 does not include any services
performed outside the Brandeis Medical Center or by any other provider other
than Dr. Brandeis. If the initial consultation and preliminary ultrasound is not
conclusive of the pregnancy in the uterus at an appropriate gestational age
there might be an additional cost to determine the location of the pregnancy
prior to administering the RU-486.
There is a $65 additional charge for an
injection of RhoGam, a medication prescribed for patients whose blood type is Rh
negative.
The Surgical Procedure (Surgical Abortion) fees are based on the age of pregnancy which is deterined by ultrasound at the time of your visit.
