Preparation costs
Bowel preparation medicines, diet instructions and repeat preparation may affect the total cost if the colon is not clean enough for proper viewing.
Why biopsy or polyp removal matters
If tissue is taken or a polyp is removed, pathology and consumable costs may be separate. These steps are performed only when clinically needed.
Ask before booking
Ask what is included, whether sedation is planned, whether biopsy is extra and when the report review will happen.
