Treatments/Rezūm/Cost & insurance

What Rezūm costs,
answered straight

Rezūm is typically covered by Medicare and most PPO and commercial plans when BPH symptoms are documented, and as a short office procedure it avoids the hospital charges that inflate surgical bills. Here is how the money works, confirmed against your plan before anything is scheduled.

How coverage works

Coverage follows the same documented-symptoms logic as every BPH treatment; the setting is what keeps the total light.

01

Medicare

Covers office-based Rezūm for documented BPH. After the Part B deductible, Medicare pays 80 percent, with a supplement typically absorbing the rest.

02

PPO and commercial plans

Most plans cover Rezūm with documented symptoms; prior authorization, when required, is handled by the office end to end.

03

One short visit

A single office treatment, no anesthesia team, no facility admission. The bill has fewer places to grow.

Common questions about Rezum costs

Does Medicare cover Rezum

Yes, for documented BPH symptoms. After the Part B deductible, Medicare pays 80 percent, and a supplement typically picks up most or all of the remainder.

What will I actually pay out of pocket

Your deductible status, coinsurance, and supplement decide it, not a list price. The office verifies your benefits and gives you the real number before scheduling.

Is one payment the end of it

Rezūm is a single treatment for most men, with roughly one in twenty needing surgical retreatment by year five in trial data, so the cost conversation is usually a one-time conversation too.
