laralen02 38 Posted April 15, 2012 Out of pocket here was $9800. I'm sure your bill was alot more than that. They always bill the insurance companies a ton more than if you pay cash. Not sure why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maria_reyes80 4 Posted April 15, 2012 I was self pay, no financing, straight cash, well cashiers check. My total was 9,988.00. That included everything and my first year of follow up. Maybe it just dpends where you live. I used trueresults and as far as i know their price is the same coast to coast for self pay. Im in the medical field, so after my first year, i plan to have someone trained to do my fills for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tammyg1969 7 Posted April 15, 2012 I did true results and had a hernia repaired. The band price was 5500 I also used True Results. They repaired a hyena which qualified me to have my insurance to pay half, so I had to do in house financing. My portion is $5500 as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
