Financial Aid
Overview
Abortion can be expensive. The average price for a first trimester abortion is between $500-600. The MAP can provide a medication abortion for as little as $5, but medication abortion is not an option for everyone.
Financial aid is available through abortion funds.
Remember, TRICARE does not cover abortion care with the exception of rape, incest or if the mother’s life is at risk.
