How much late term abortion cost?
Answers

A lot, because it would need to be done in a hospital, and insurance wouldn't cover it except in the case of a major medical issue. And no one's going to do a really late-term abortion. After the second trimester, and if the mother has some major health issues, a baby can be delivered by C-section and have a good chance of survival. Doctors are not required to do abortions, ever.

It depends how late, but somewhere north of $20,000 for an elective procedure

Depends on the procedure and the reason. Most are done for significant medical reasons so would be covered by insurance.
