How much does it cost to test for genetic defects?
One, the normal charge. Many large and professional hospitals can do genetic testing, the normal cost of genetic testing is not high, usually only three or four thousand dollars, I believe that this cost is a lot of people who want to do genetic testing can afford. Just when patients do genetic testing, it is best to go to a professional hospital to do. Because although there are many hospitals that can do genetic testing, some hospitals have outdated equipment and the results of genetic testing may not be accurate.
Two, hospital charges. Different hospitals may also vary in the price of genetic testing. If you do genetic testing in a regular tertiary hospital, the cost, as mentioned above, is usually only about three to four thousand dollars. But if some patients go to private hospitals, that is, hospitals that are contracted by private individuals to do genetic testing, then it may cost a lot more than regular hospitals just for the examination fee.
Three, geographical influence. Different geographical areas may also vary in the charges for genetic testing. In fact, this is very understandable, for example, in Shanghai to do genetic testing, charges may be slightly higher. But if in Turpan, Inner Mongolia and other relatively economically backward cities, the cost of doing genetic testing will be slightly cheaper.
