How much do medial branch blocks cost?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Variable: But this procedure should be covered by most all insurance carriers. It is usually due with one or two diagnostic blocks and if successful completed with an rfa which is a burning of the nerve that can relieve pain for 1-2 years. Plan on about $3000.

It depends: The exact cost to you will vary based on your insurance and the number of levels blocked.
