What will it cost in a private clinic?

Attached prescription I am 28 male I had recurring urine infection. My symptoms are yellow urine and burning sensation. I took many antibiotic courses, but now my urine culture shows no bacteria, still I have same symptoms. I go to a government hospital. The urologist tried many medicines, but nothing helped. Now doctor advised cystoscopy and biopsy, and they will send the tissue to lab for more testing. I want to do the cystoscopy and biopsy in a private clinic, but I want to send the tissue sample to the government hospital lab for testing (because it may be cheaper). Is this possible? If possible Also, can anyone tell me the approximate cost of cystoscopy and biopsy in a private clinic
