The Alegent Health Podcast Episode #23
My Cost


With any other major purchase in life, you know how much it will cost and what you’re getting for your money. It shouldn’t be any different with your healthcare. That’s why Alegent Health puts the power of cost and quality at your fingertips. Simply visit Alegent.com and you can access objective quality reports and use My Cost, the first and only healthcare cost estimator of its kind in the world. They ’re the tools you need to make a more informed decision about your healthcare.

Before You Start:

To receive the most accurate cost estimates, have the following items available

• Copy of your current insurance card
• Current remaining plan deductible amount
• Current co-payment and/or co-insurance amounts

Visit Alegent.com and click on the My Cost  button.

Enter your name and insurance or payment information.

If you have insurance:
Some insurance providers are directly linked to My Cost and will automatically enter your deductible, co-payment and co-insurance amounts. If your insurance company is not directly linked, you will enter those amounts yourself. Simply follow the My Cost screens for instructions.

If you do not have insurance:
Answer a series of questions to see if you’re eligible for financial assistance.

Select the Alegent Health procedure you need.
