Other Common Tests During Pregnancy

Content: What will you pay? If you’re uninsured, you’re responsible for the entire amount. If your insurer classifies these tests as routine prenatal care, they may be covered with no cost to you. Otherwise, your share of the payment is determined by the structure of your insurance plan. For example, you might have a $25 co-pay for laboratory tests (the bloodwork), and a $75 co-pay for radiology procedures (the ultrasound.) Or you might be responsible for all costs up to your deductible, and a percentage of them after that, until you reach your out-of-pocket maximum for the year. Second Trimester Prenatal Screening Tests
What are they? Prenatal screen tests that are common during the second trimester include: blood tests for things like alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), hCG, Estriol, and Inhibin. Abnormal results may mean you need additional testing.
