What biohazard cleanup covers:
Before anything is touched, the crew checks for hazards such as sharps and glass. People and pets stay out while protective equipment goes on.
Crews wear gloves, eye protection, respirators and disposable suits. Doors close, vents are managed and the work zone is marked.
Crews in protective suits remove contaminated materials and clean hard surfaces from the outside of the stain inward. Waste is sealed as it is collected.
The crew goes through the finished space with the owner or manager. Waste leaves in sealed containers and the property is ready for the next step.

Often, yes. Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain causes. Renters policies may cover cleanup of belongings but not the building. Call the insurer before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt.

The price depends on the size of the area, the type of contamination, the materials affected, odor work and waste hauling. A quote is possible once the crew knows the details. Insurance may cover part of it.
