Most of these surgeries will be done in an operating room in which case there is an additional $280 OR fee. Rounding on a patient in the hospital is $200 per day. If we off-site surgery, there is a minimum fee of $2,500 no matter what surgery we do. We do not add this fee to your total but we do charge a minimum of $2,500 even if the regular office fee would have been less than $2,500.
If done in an operating room, anesthesia will be billed by the anesthesiologist who generally accepts your medical insurance. The hospital or surgery center will also have fees that may be covered or partially covered by your medical insurance.
