What did your lap band cost out of pocket?

[dford 26]

Hello right now I have no idea if my insurance is going to accept my appeal cuz they excluded all obesity related surgeries out of my plan. The doctor I called and asked how much it would cost said it was $30,000 I have no idea if that is what they charge insurance or if that's self pay. So I'm kinda shopping around to see where different prices are and where you had them done. If you could help me I would appreciate it. Thanks!!! :-)

Mine was a flat fee of 10k which included everything (dr, labs, pre op shakes, NUT etc) except the psych eval... but my insurance covered that as a regular dr visit. The flat rate also included fills for the first 6 months

Mine was done in 2006 in the great state of WI for $17,500. I think the cost has come down since then!
