You deserve quality care at an affordable cost. The Allentown Women's Center strives to provide the highest quality abortion services at affordable prices. AWC offers you health care that you can trust. Why settle for less?

AWC accepts most insurances (see below) or we offer a cash reduction for patients who do not have insurance and pay in full at the time of service. Cash fees for abortion services range from $345 to $695 and are determined by several factors including: type of abortion (surgical or non-surgical), length of pregnancy, anesthesia choice, and blood type. We offer a $50 cash reduction for women who have Medical Assistance and a $20 reduction for women who are students (with ID).

For surgical abortions between 5-11 weeks: $395 awake with local anesthesia; $430 for local anesthesia with a narcotic to help with pain; and $495 for intravenous sedation ("twilight sleep").

For surgical abortions between 12-13 weeks: $470 awake with local anesthesia; $505 for local anesthesia with a narcotic to help with pain; and $570 for intravenous sedation ("twilight sleep").

For surgical abortions between 14-16 weeks: $630 for local anesthesia with a narcotic to help with pain; $695 for intravenous sedation ("twilight sleep").

For non-surgical abortions between 5-8 weeks: $460; if the method fails and requires surgery to complete, there is a $100 additional charge and includes your choice of anesthesia.
Our fees for all abortion services include counseling, lab work, ultrasound, most medications, and all follow-up care including a 3-week follow-up exam.

Additional charges: Rhogam Injection (for patients with a negative blood type): $50.

Insurance: Most insurance policies cover abortion services. Often we can arrange for your carrier to pay us directly. Otherwise, we can give you an itemized bill that you can submit for reimbursement. We participate with Pennsylvania Blue Shield, Capital Blue Cross, Independence Blue Cross, Keystone Health Plan Central, Keystone Health Plan East, Aetna, Valley Preferred, Choice Plus, and AmeriHealth PPO and HMO insurance plans. We may accept other insurance plans with pre-verification. Not all insurance plans cover abortion services, so we recommend contacting your insurance company to find out if elective abortion is covered under your health plan. You may or may not need a referral.

Payment options: Payment in full is expected at the time of service. AWC accepts Cash, Money Orders, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and Debit Cards. We do not accept personal checks. If you are having difficulty obtaining the full fee, please call our telephone counselors to discuss your situation and what options you may have.
