It is scary to have blood in urine. In some cases, a cystoscopy may be prescribed to find out what’s going on with your urinary tract. The cystoscopy price in the Philippines may start from Php 13,000 to Php 46,000 and above. See the current rates of this test in hospitals.
Price List
Here is a list of hospital rates that we found. You may want to save them for future reference.
| Hospital | Price |
|---|---|
| Makati Medical Center (Package price) | 42,500 |
| Manila Doctors Hospital | 13,000 |
| St. Luke’s Medical Center | 35,000 |
Cheaper For You
A cheap cystoscopy may be availed once you use your discount privileges. Based on our data, Manila Doctors tend to have the lowest price among private hospitals.
In my research, it seems that government hospitals can offer much cheaper rates for patients. Take for example this Bicol Medical Center price of Php 10,000 for the urologic test. For sure, you can also find the same among hospitals in Metro Manila.
Use of Philhealth
The coverage of Philhealth for cystoscopy is indicated to be Php 9,700 to Php 12,000 as of the latest case rate.
Your health card benefits may cover the procedure especially if the accredited doctor specified the test. If it is part of the pre-existing condition, there may be a limit of up to Php 10,000 just like what we’ve seen with MRI or CT scans.
Patient Type
Depending on the patient, a male cystoscopy may be different from a female version. A special procedure may be advised by the doctor since the anatomical structures are different.
Don’t you think there are too many conditions that involve the same symptoms? This is why a cystoscopy is used in order to rule out other diseases so prompt treatment can be done by the doctor.
