An obstetrician/gynecologist (OB/GYN) is a medical specialist who plays a key role in maintaining women’s reproductive health and caring for women throughout their pregnancy. 

Cost of an OB/GYN Visit Without Insurance

The initial visit to an OB/GYN will be a separate cost that does not include any additional procedures or treatments rendered. The national average cost of an OB/GYN visit for a new patient is $386 without insurance.

Cost of OBGYN with insurance

The coverage policy for Obstetrics and Gynecology (OBGYN) services under private insurance typically includes a range of reproductive and women's health services. This generally encompasses prenatal care, labor and delivery, postnatal care, and annual wellness visits, including pap smears and pelvic exams. 

Coverage for contraceptive services, including birth control pills and IUDs, is also often part of the package. Many plans also cover screenings for sexually transmitted infections, mammograms, and osteoporosis screenings, depending on age and risk factors. However, the extent of coverage, deductibles, copayments, and whether certain services require pre-authorization can vary significantly depending on the individual policy and the insurance provider. 

Some elective or specialized services, such as certain fertility treatments, might not be covered or could require additional coverage plans.
