What is Vasectomy?
A vasectomy is a minor outpatient procedure that cuts or blocks the vas deferens tubes to prevent sperm from reaching the semen, providing permanent male contraception. The no-scalpel technique uses a small puncture instead of an incision and takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Full recovery typically takes one week.

Medicare coverage for vasectomy is determined by National Coverage Determinations (NCDs). Coverage status shown above reflects national policy.
