Anyone from Indiana self pay?



Recommended Posts

Greetings everyone

I am not sure this is the right place to post this question of oh well. This is my first time on here.
So am living in Indianapolis IN and am looking to having the gastric sleeve. I am unfortunately going to be using some inheritance money and be self pay. I am wanting to know if anyone else on here from the Indiana area has been self pay and who they went though? I am looking at Community south and they want around 28,000 for the entire thing plus that covers any and all future follow ups. .

Anyone from the Indiana area know go through someone else that might be more affordable?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to this but I wanted to respond. I'm also self-pay, we have insurance but it excludes WLS and we can't get it added to insurance policy. So, I went to St. Vincent in Carmel and waiting on them to get back with me on price for R/Y. I was told approx. $34,000. but that person wasn't sure and didn't know if it include the hospital and etc!!! OUCH

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
