Kaiser Permanente Sample Fee List
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
As your partner in health, we want to help you better manage your care. Staying on top of your
finances, such as how much you spend on health care, helps give you peace of mind so you can
concentrate on the things in life you enjoy. This list shows estimated member charges for some
commonly used medical services—such as office visits, lab tests, X-rays, and prescription
medicines—when provided at Kaiser Permanente medical centers, medical offices, pharmacies, and
other facilities. When you receive care or services from a provider at a non–Kaiser Permanente facility,
even if the provider is under contract to provide services for Kaiser Permanente members, the charges
may be different.
The amount of charges you pay out of your own pocket will depend on your plan coverage and on things such as whether or not your provider is a Kaiser Permanente practitioner. And your benefit plan may cover services at different levels of copayment or coinsurance. Use this list to help you:
Estimate your out-of-pocket medical spending for the coming year based on the care and services you expect to use from our facilities. Manage the balance of your Kaiser Permanente Custom Care HealthInvestor (HSA) or Kaiser Permanente Custom Care HealthBuilder (HRA) if you’re enrolled in an HSA-qualified plan or a plan paired with an HRA. (These products are not available in all regions. Contact Member Services for information about availability.) Review your options during open enrollment. (You may want to choose another Kaiser Permanente benefit option that better fits your needs.) Estimate the funds you may need for your flexible spending account, if applicable. For more information about our charges not related to prescription drugs or for questions about a
service that’s not listed, call our Deductible Products Service Team at 1-800-390-3507.
For more information about prescription drug charges, call the Kaiser Permanente pharmacy near you.
You’ll find our pharmacies’ phone numbers listed on the member section of our Web site at kp.org,
in Your Guidebook to Kaiser Permanente Services, or on the label of your prescription filled at one of
our pharmacies.
