16k done in Ontario, Canada. The fee included 3 nights at a nearby hotel. Had to order specific shakes for pre/post op in addition. I went with a line of credit to finance and will claim it all on my taxes next year. I have to think of this as my new "vehicle" that is going to get me where I need to be for many years. Will pay it off ASAP.

Saving on groceries/eating out already and will thrift shop my smaller sized clothing. You are worth the price tag.

In New England, my surgery (and the costs for the six months of NUT and other required visits) totaled close to $37,000. When the dust settled, I had to pay around $2,000 USD out of pocket. Follow visits cost about $350 if a fill was needed, a bit less if no fills.

Now that I am on Medicare, they don't pay for surgical follow ups, but my doctor's office still takes good care of me with 3 month visits and fills as needed, almost two years out.
