What do you pay for an ACTH stimulation test? U.S. Dollars

[Bailey's Mom]

ACTH $125.37; exam $62; Cortrosyn injection-follow up (this was every time we had the ACTH)$114.50; IDEXXNSAID panel $64.38. That comes to $366. Test was run every 4 weeks for sure and not infrequently at two weeks as well.

It is much more likely that the manufacture of Cortrosyn, Amphastar, is the entity making a killing. I haven't quite figured out what makes this stimulating agent so dang expensive.

I am paying about $158 for the blood tests and $30 for the cortrosyn and $5 for bio-disposal.

No charge for the stay or anything for a check.

I live in Long Island. I originally was paying over $300.

[Bo's Mom]

Here in South Texas I just paid $250.
