What builds the total
A quote is only comparable when it includes all four. When you consult, ask for the all-in number in writing.
- 01
-
Anesthesia
Billed by time, by a separate anesthesia provider. It is not part of the surgeon's quote and it does not appear on it.
- 02
-
Facility fee
The operating room, whether that is a hospital or an accredited surgery center. Accreditation is worth asking about directly.
- 03
-
Aftercare
Garments, follow-up visits, and whatever revision policy the practice offers. A revision policy is a real number, so ask what it costs.
