Abortion Access and Costs.
Abortion Access and Costs: Where can I safely get an abortion?
Safe abortion care is available at certified clinics across the country, including many listed on Abortion Clinics Online (ACOL). These clinics follow strict medical guidelines to ensure safe, confidential, and supportive care. Always make sure you’re going to a licensed provider and not a crisis pregnancy center, which may give misleading information.
How much does it cost?
Abortion costs vary depending on how far along you are and the type of abortion. A first-trimester abortion can range from $400 to $800. Later procedures or additional tests may increase the total cost. Medication abortion (the abortion pill) is often less expensive than in-clinic procedures.
Does insurance cover it?
Some insurance plans do cover abortion, but it depends on your state and provider. Medicaid coverage also varies—only some states allow Medicaid to be used for abortion care. It’s always best to contact the clinic directly and ask about insurance and payment options.
Abortion Access and Costs: What if I don’t have money?
If you’re worried about cost, you’re not alone. Many clinics work with abortion funds that can help pay for the procedure, travel, or lodging. You can also visit AbortionFunds.org to find support in your area. Don’t be afraid to ask the clinic staff—they’re used to helping patients find resources.
Can I get an abortion without telling my parents?
This depends on where you live. Some states require parental consent or notification for minors, but others—like New Mexico and California—do not. If you need support navigating this, reach out to a trusted provider through ACOL who can confidentially guide you.
