Providence Health Plans
If you have Providence Health Plan coverage through the Washington State Health Benefits Exchange (Columbia 1500, Columbia 4500, and Columbia 8) or other Providence Health Plans that originate in Washington State (Option Advantage, HSA or HSE qualified, Choice and Connect) Washington State Department of Health will pay for your abortion services at Cedar River Clinics. We are fully contracted with the program so there will be no cost to you. If you are unsure of what Providence Plan you have you can contact our Financial Office at 888-291-6170 and we can assist you. You can also visit the Department of Health’s Increasing Access to Reproductive Choice page.
Private Insurance
Most private medical insurance plans cover abortion without a referral. Cedar River Clinics accepts most major plans and insurance coverage for abortion can usually be verified within 24 hours.
If you have private insurance you may want to call your insurance directly to verify your coverage and benefits in order to estimate what your out-of-pocket expenses will be prior to presenting your policy number to us. Once we are presented with your policy number we are contractually obligated to bill your insurance our standard fees according to medical billing guidelines for any covered services.
If you are sure you will want to use your private insurance, we can pre-verify your coverage and a financial specialist will be available to go over your individual health benefits, coverage and out of pocket expenses. All quotes given by Cedar River Clinics are an estimate; it is never a guarantee of claim payment and we cannot be 100% sure what the insurance will pay until they have received and processed your claims.
Sliding Fee Scale/Cash Option
If you do not present Medicaid/Washington Apple Health coverage or provide a private insurance policy number to us, you are eligible for our sliding fee scale based on services received and your income. This private pay cash discounted price is all-inclusive, covering your procedure; anesthesia, in-clinic ultrasound and lab work, and follow up appointment. Student and military discounts are available with ID. Please call one of our financial specialists for details at 888-291-6170.
