Rod bearing dealer repair cost? what's involved?

Morning all,
I had posted earlier and thanks to some good feedback i believe I have a rod bearing that has failed. The deeper knock is not observed at start-up but once the engine does start to warm up a bit. The sound is most pronounced on the right side of the engine (serp belt side) and does not fade away with time.
I need to get an idea of rough estimate for rod bearing repair at dealer before i go there for diagnosis and repair. Am i north of $2000 on this one?
What all work is involved?
should any other parts get changed while the mechanic is in there?
Thanks for any help that can be provided. i really don't want to get rid of this car anytime soon, but if the ost is prhobitive, it'll take some thinking.
