 Treatment Financing

If your health insurance does not cover surgery for the morbidly obese (weight loss surgery), healthcare financing can make it easier to afford the weight loss or cosmetic surgery that you need or want. Healthcare financing helps make high quality surgical (potentially life saving) procedures — a reality.

There are installment loans with low, fixed rates, or interest-free loans for 3, 6, 12, or 18 months to qualified applicants. Either way, you'll be able to find an option designed to fit within your budget. You'll like the flexible payment options—they can set up a payment schedule for you, from 18 months to five years. Generally, financing is available from $1,500 to $25,000.

The average time in the hospital is 2 days for laparoscopic, and about 3-5 days for open gastric bypass, depending on your surgery. Recovery time is about 2 to 6 weeks depending on the type of operation, your condition, the type of work that you do, and other factors.

Some of the costs of the operation incurred from:

• Hospital fees
• Surgeon fees
• Anesthesia fees
• Lab and x-ray fees
• Miscellaneous fees

Contact Us and our office will help you identify your treatment facility / financing options.
