Will My Insurance Pay For My Girlfriend’s Abortion Pill?

If your girlfriend is considering taking the abortion pill, you might be wondering whether your insurance will cover the cost. In most cases, the answer is no. 

Insurance companies typically only provide benefits to dependents, which usually include a spouse and children—not a girlfriend or unmarried partner. This means that it’s unlikely your policy will cover her abortion.

Read on to learn more about how much an abortion costs.

How Much Does an Abortion Cost Without Insurance?

Without insurance, the cost of an abortion—particularly the abortion pill (medical abortion)—varies based on location and provider. On average, the abortion pill can cost between $300 and $800. 

Additional costs may arise from required consultations, ultrasounds, or follow-up care, making the overall expense higher than expected.

If finances are a concern, it’s important to take a step back and explore all options before rushing into a decision based on cost alone. There are resources available to provide financial and practical support for your girlfriend’s other pregnancy options (which include parenting and adoption).
