The Treatment Cost Estimator tool can give you a general understanding of the possible cost ranges of common types of health care services. This tool is populated with data based on the patient claims paid by Horizon BCBSNJ to health care professionals in the past for services performed on their patients. These estimates can help you understand the range of costs for a specific treatment of health care services.

Please Note: These estimates do not include the unusually highest or lowest costs. It also does not calculate your out-of-pocket costs. Your out-of-pocket costs are based on your benefits.

To use the Treatment Cost Estimator, follow the steps below:

1. Click Benefits & Coverage.
2. Then click Treatment Cost Estimator.
3. Then Go to Treatment Cost Estimator to be directed to Healthsparq, our partner website.

Healthsparq provides insights into estimated costs for hospital stays, MRIs, office visits, surgeries, vaccines, X-rays and more.
