Vasectomy cost

The cost of a vasectomy procedure will vary depending on which clinic you attend, your level of private health insurance, the type of anaesthetic chosen and any concessions you hold, such as a Healthcare card.

Though there may be an out of pocket expense with vasectomy, over the long term it is a very cost-effective form of contraception with a much higher degree of efficacy than condoms or other contraceptive methods.

The cost of your vasectomy includes:

access to counselling services
STI testing
access to 24 hour nurse-led telephone aftercare
interpreters.

Medicare rebated vasectomy

These prices are based on the minimum cost of the procedure for people who hold a valid Medicare card and whose private health insurance doesn't cover vasectomy. Prices reflect the out of pocket cost after the Medicare rebate.
