No, because it will be different for every patient (for the same treatment) and will fluctuate widely from year to year. Also there is a general ethical sense of recommending the best treatment and dealing with cost as an afterthought.
- benj111 8y agoCar insurance prices vary widely from year to year, and person to person. I still expect a somewhat accurate price when I give some minimal information. Agree with the ethics, but if someone presents with a broken leg do you xray it (cheap) or mri (expensive)? For anything vaguely complicated the Dr is basically just eliminating likely culprits. Its preferable for everyone (that doesn't have a profit motive) if they try the cheap/quick ones first.
- tehlike 8y agoIf you have a solid isurance provider and an insurer(e.g. google) they work with you to find out the most reasonable treatment and ballpark estimation of the costs. So there is that.
