COLORADO As your partner in health, we want to help you manage your health care spending. Knowing how much you can expect to pay for care and services can give you peace of mind so you can concentrate on the things you enjoy in life. This Sample Fee List 2 shows you estimated charges for many common medical services like office visits, lab tests, and X-rays when you receive care at Kaiser Permanente facilities. Your charges may be different if you receive care or services from a contracted provider at a non Kaiser Permanente facility. This list doesn t apply to medical services received from any network providers who aren t Kaiser Permanente providers. The amount you pay out of your own pocket for a service will depend on your plan coverage, whether you ve reached your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum, and other factors. The amount you are asked to pay may be a copay (a fixed dollar amount you pay for services) or coinsurance (a percentage of charges you pay for services). Please note that these estimated charges are based on typical visits. Your actual charges may vary depending on your diagnosis and the length of your visit.
