Mayo Clinic is committed to providing you with quality care that puts your needs first.

The right diagnosis

The right diagnosis is key to the best care and cost effectiveness. Mayo Clinic gets the diagnosis right, which avoids:

• The costs of misdiagnosis
• Pain and suffering from unnecessary procedures
• Wasted time and stress

Many patients come to Mayo Clinic for a second opinion before treatment for a complex condition. Research shows that as many as 88% of those patients go home with a new or refined diagnosis, changing their care plan and potentially their lives. You'll receive quality care because our value-based models reward quality rather than the number of patient visits. You can expect exceptional value because we deliver best-in-class outcomes in an efficient, cost-effective manner.

You can easily understand your financial responsibility by using our Cost Estimator tool. If you are eligible for financial assistance, we provide extended payment plan options and medically necessary services at reduced rates or no cost.
