Ready to Plan Your Abortion?
Follow These Steps:

Step 1: Do you have insurance? Find out if it covers abortion.

Some insurance companies offer abortion coverage as a benefit. If you have insurance, call and ask if abortion is covered. You can usually find their number on the back of your insurance card or online.

If abortion is covered, ask for an in-network clinic and make an appointment.

If you have Medicaid (government insurance), click the button below or visit Abortion & Medicaid to learn if Medicaid covers abortion in your state.

Step 2: Make an appointment for an abortion.

Before you search for funding, make an appointment for an abortion at a clinic or with a telehealth provider. Schedule an appointment even if you’re unsure how to pay for it. Clinics don’t charge for rescheduling.

In the U.S., the average price of a first-trimester abortion (up to 12 weeks) is between $500 and $600. In the second trimester, that amount increases weekly and can go as high as $2,000*. These prices vary and can change by location, so call different clinics to find which one costs the least.

Tell the clinic if you can’t afford to pay for an abortion. Ask if they offer any discounts. Many clinics provide extra financial assistance. Visit Extra Financial Assistance to learn more.

*These numbers are from the Planned Parenthood blog. Always confirm costs with your clinic.

Step 3: Determine how much you can pay.

Abortion funds don’t usually have the money to cover the entire cost of your abortion. So it’s important to know how much you can contribute.

When adding up the cost of your abortion, remember to include the price of practical needs like travel, lodging, lost wages, and childcare.

Don’t have much? Don’t worry. Abortion funds will do everything possible to get you the support you need, including working together.
