Fees
If you have a procedure performed at Northern GI Endoscopy Center, you will receive two separate charges. One charge will be generated from your physician’s private practice for their professional fee for performing your procedure and interpreting the findings. The other charge will be from Northern GI Endoscopy Center for the use of the facility (room charge, medication, equipment usage, nursing care, etc.). If you are uninsured and are not eligible for Medicare or Medicaid, you may still qualify for our colon cancer-screening program. A fee schedule is available by telephone, upon request. Please do not hesitate to discuss our fees if you have any questions.
