Endoscopy Care in Des Moines

Patient Information

The Iowa Clinic Endoscopy Center is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), assuring that our care, policies, procedures, processes and outcomes are all up to nationally-accepted standards. 

Our physicians and staff are dedicated to providing you and your family members with personal attention. We’ll make every effort to ensure that you and your loved ones are made as comfortable as possible from the time of admission until your release to go home. 

As a reminder, patients must secure a ride to and from their procedure with someone at least 18 years of age who has a cell phone. Do not use a taxi, Uber or other public transportation service.

The Endoscopy Center Experience

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of excellence. Every procedure is performed with state-of-the-art equipment by board-certified gastroenterologists. Our colon polyp detection rates rank higher than the national average. And every tissue sample and biopsy is reviewed by a specialist in gastrointestinal pathology. 

Along the way, we work to make every part of your endoscopic procedure more comfortable. We also take precautions to ensure your health and safety, preventing infection and exposure to COVID-19. Take a virtual tour to see what it’s like to get an endoscopic procedure.

Paying for Your Endoscopic Procedure

The cost of each endoscopic procedure varies. Charges are based on a facility fee for each procedure performed as well as a provider fee. We ask that you pay co-insurance fees on the day of your procedure. For your convenience, we accept cash, personal checks, Visa and MasterCard. 

Following your procedure, we’ll file your claim with insurance. If the facility fee or provider fee is more than your insurance plan allows, we’ll bill you for the difference. 

If you have any questions about the cost of your procedure or would like an estimate before undergoing a procedure, call the Central Billing Office at (515) 875-9604.
