So what was your out of pocket costs for VSG



Recommended Posts

I am curious to know what your total out of pocket expense was for your VSG surgery after your insurance policy paid up.

I myself did self pay for $5000 plus another $500 or so for travel and lodging. I did not pursue insurance because I did not want to wait for approval, my health was declining fast.
