Community-based fundraising with Help Hope Live can help pay for skin cancer treatment costs.
The cost of cancer treatment depends on multiple factors related to the melanoma’s size, depth and location. One study revealed that the average treatment costs for skin cancers range from $1,732 for stage I to $56,059 for stage IV.
According to the CDC, the overall annual cost for treating melanoma has grown faster than the costs for all other cancers combined, and the annual cost of treating new patients with melanoma is projected to be $1.6 billion by 2030.
Below is a list of common treatments and their estimated costs before insurance.
A recent multi-year study found that the average cost for a skin cancer screening was $150, answering the question of how much does a skin cancer screening cost without insurance. You may also be able to arrange for a free skin cancer screening through organizations like the American Academy of Dermatology and the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery.
It’s impossible to gauge the full cost of fighting skin cancer. This fight can cost you energy, some of your plans for the future, personal goals, and even relationships—and that’s before you add in the financial cost.
No matter your insurance, out-of-pocket skin cancer treatment costs can add up and take a big toll. Finding melanoma financial assistance for cancer treatment, procedures, therapy, rehabilitation, and long-term health care can be an added source of stress for patients and their families.
When you turn to Help Hope Live as your community-based fundraising source, you’ll find everything you need to start fundraising for cancer expenses. Together, we can raise funds to assist you with your unmet medical expenses and related costs from living with skin cancer.
