The example above is from Virginia Tech's $250,000 plan. Rates from other Universities are from the most similar plan available at those institutions.

As an uninsured student, you are responsible for 100% of the cost of any medical services you utilize. While the cost of medical insurance premiums may seem high, they are relatively low when compared with the cost of medical services. Below are some examples of medical procedure costs formulated by the Alliance group. Note that these illustrate the cost for the physicians' services only. This cost does not include the cost of medicine, facility charges, such as an operating room, or physical therapy charges. These additional charges can easily double or triple the costs listed below.

Example Procedure Costs:
Appendectomy (44950)
$701.00
Tonsillectomey & Adenoidectomy (42820)
$476.00
Vaginal Delivery (59400)
