Years later I noticed my stomic is geting larger and larger and it is very hard, I was told i need two doctors one for the hernia and the other for the diastasis abd wall. My questions are - 1 would my insurance pay? 2- Do you know of a good Doctor. - Is it a diffacult operation?
1169557 tn?1263270893 As far as cost, it is my understanding that it costs around $25,000 (in Houston) without insurance coverage. There are a few insurance carriers that still cover it, but many have dropped it from their policy or offer it only as an optional coverage to businesses, many of whom do not accept it. http://www.articlesbase.com/health-articles/proactol-review-does-proactol-diet-pills-work-for-weight-loss-1707237.
Avatar f tn Hello, I just had my ultrasound done today and it turns out I have a 5cm cyst on left ovary.

Avatar f tn He lives in Pakistan where there is no health care insurance. Finding a donor of liver and then the cost of transplant is out of reach of a person. It could be in millions of Rupees and impossible for an ordinary family. Some people say that if hernia explodes inside the body, it will kill the person. Is there any way to contain the Hepatitis C and reduce the bulge of swollen hernia?
494672 tn?1254152672 Terry - I had no idea that the surgery would cost that much! I went into the surgery knowing that most of it would be covered - then to find out that all of it was - what an awesome bonus. It is something to celebrate for sure.

Avatar m tn I can not get travel insurance in relation to hernia surgery. Wondering what the risk is of complications post surgery? Do I go or not go?
Avatar f tn For example heart surgery in CA might cost $75,000 while the same surgery could cost $5,000 in MS. It also depends on what insurance company you have. Each insurer creates separate contracts at different price points for the same provider/facility. So a prenatal appointment with Dr X might cost $100 with Blue Cross Blue Shield but cost $200 with United. It is so stupid. In the next few years the federal government is pushing to make costs more even across the board.
Avatar f tn I have been diagnosed with myopic degeneration and receive the intraocular injection which is very effective. My insurance carrier will not cover the cost of the injection (medicine and surgery). If I had a diagnosis of macular degeneration it would be fully covered. I am looking for suggestions as to how to make my case with the insurance carrier that this is not a one time event but a chronic condition that if not treated would result in a loss of vision.
Avatar f tn Insurance usually picks up the cost of this. Double check but I doubt you'll notice an out of pocket expense if you have health insurance if you do it at the hospital.
Avatar f tn Dr Zenn at Duke told me the first step of Diep will cost sixty thousand.. with tmy insurance paying eighty percent of what they think he should have charged. I have Mega Life and they do not pay well. They only pay a maximum of two thousand for ambulatory procedures. Would breast reductioin and lift by ambulatory? Would tissue expander placement be ambulatory. How much would that cost... a range? How much for the implant placement. Is it ambulatory as well?

1036535 tn?1278502599 Looking at the EOB from insurance they repeatedly charged me for something that cost $89.72. The only thing I got more several times was Pepsi, and I know an 8 oz. can doesn't cost that much ;) I can't believe the stupid insurance company paid this right away, but haven't paid other, more legitimate things without a fight!
Avatar f tn I have no medical insurance and I have an agressive cataract in my right eye that has made me legally blind in that eye. Does anyone know what the range of actual cost of cataract surgery sans insurance payments is. It would be mono focal and only the one eye. Any information would be appreciated.
4706518 tn?1358198536 I also have had mesh surgery as of February this year. Since surgery I have had pain in my stomach everyday and cant work in my job. In hide site I have found a Dr. that will remove the mesh as he is specialized in this field. The downfall is he is in Las Vegas and he doesn't except insurance. He has financing. Its Dr. Kevin Peterson. He has NIS group. NO INSURANCE SURGERY GROUP. Good luck I'll be interested if anyone has this removal. I would like to know the out come.
Avatar n tn Those are costs in addition to the standard cataract surgery costs after insurance. The added cost included the extra surgeon fees as well as the IOL cost itself, in my case for the toric IOL is was split about $600 for the IOL and about $700 for the extra surgeon fees. If $1600 is the total added cost for a Symfony IOL including all extra fees, thats a better price than in my area.
Avatar n tn what is the cost of the typical and complicated pituatory macroadenoma removal surgery
Avatar f tn Every place charges a different amount but I would ask the doctors office who you will have perform the surgery and they should be able to tell you the cost and they will be able to tell you how much your insurance covers.. I have had the surgery twice and both times the billing dept for the docs office told me my out of pocket cost before the surgery..Hope this helps.. Good Luck..
Avatar m tn I don't have insurance. The cost for an examination then laser surgery to fix a small retina tear was $1500. Does anyone who has insurance know how much the insurance paid for a similar procedure? If you also don't have insurance how much did your doctor charge. $1500 seemed like an awfully high cost for a 10 minute procedure.
Avatar f tn If anyone of you have undergone surgery in CEC, please share your experience. As I will not have insurance coverage, the surgery cost is a big worry for me. I know it varies from patient to patient, but please let me know how much it cost you, so that I can have some rough idea of how much to expect.
2121656 tn?1395674749 Please don't assume that I've demanded a Ultrasound for my issue, it was my PCP you ordered the ultrasound for a problem I'm having with my liver. Therefore, common sense would be at the time of viewing the aorta, kidney, pancreas, ect. so, I was only asking if the ultrasound on the kidney area would also show the lump under my 6th rib. It would make more since to me to examine the lump at the same time. With all due respect, I'm entertained by some Dr.
