Self-Pay -- how many fills included in your price?



Recommended Posts

I have a surgery date for Dec. 15th, there must be a lot of people with $$ in Los Angeles to have to wait that long!

I was told that 4 fills are included in the $15.5 price, then $250 after.

Someone posted that Dr. Korman had previously been offering free fills for life...

Anyone negotiate a better deal? Or, to put it another way, how many fills did your doctor offer as part of your original package??

Here in San Antonio my doc offers free fills for 1 year with self pay. I've seen 1 year and 2 years...but never "for life"...that would be pretty nice!

How many fills are needed in the first year on average? The people I am looking at include the first six fills for free in the first year only.
