Pricing & Financial Assistance
Pricing & Cost of Care Estimates
We want to help you be informed about out-of-pocket costs for care or services you will receive at CentraCare. To help you learn what your costs may be, we now offer a tool in MyChart you can use to create estimates for the cost of care.
Estimates in MyChart
- If you have an existing MyChart account, you can login and get started.
- If you do not have a MyChart account, you can get an estimate using the MyChart Guest Estimate tool. Get started as a Guest.
Price Estimate Request Form
You also may use the Price Estimate Request form to learn how much a medical service or procedure will cost. Staff from CentraCare's Managed Care department will review your information and respond to you within two business days.
For questions, please call 320-251-2700, ext. 53129
