I just started my herceptin treatment at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. My first treatment was $6,298 (they said I got more the first time). The 2nd treatment was $4,618 and these are the costs for the drug only. The total bill for the first and second treatment was $12,757.30!!! This hospital is a preferred provider with my insurance so I'll be curious to see how much they approve and pay. Since I've met my out of pocket for this year there will be no cost to me. I must admit I was shocked at the cost.
