As a rule the more areas you need studied, the more the test will cost. However costs may vary from one physician to another and is different in different states. It is always best to inquire about cost with your physician. Most insurance policies cover EMGs, though frequently the coverage is not 100% and the primary care or insurance physician will have to OK it before it can be ordered. It is best to have your doctor's office find out what kind of coverage you have for an EMG.
