Understanding Hemophilia: What You Need to Know About This Rare Bleeding Disorder

Costs and Insurance Considerations

Hemophilia treatment can be expensive. Factor replacement products alone can cost $200,000–$300,000 per year for severe cases. Emergency treatment or surgery-related bleeding can add to these costs significantly. However, most health insurance providers cover hemophilia-related treatments, and several manufacturers offer patient assistance programs to help with affordability.

If you're considering treatment options, it’s important to speak with a hematologist who specializes in bleeding disorders and to work with a Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC), which provides comprehensive, coordinated care. You can find HTCs near you through the CDC’s HTC directory.
