I recently had a surgery done and we weren't sure it was going to be covered by insurance. I wanted to make sure I knew how much of a liability I was taking on by moving ahead before knowing about insurance. I was told the insurance was going to be billed $150k, but if they didn't pay, they would only charge me $15k as the cash price. I was ok with that since the surgery was important and insurance did pay, but that type of pricing variation is why healthcare is so expensive in the US.
- wang_li 6y agoThere are places where they don’t use insurance, it’s cash only. The Surgery Center of Oklahoma does cash only and will tell you the cost before you even contact a surgeon or specialist. It’s on their website. You can also get mri images done for very low cost of you pay cash. https://surgerycenterok.com/ https://surgerycenterok.com/ https://affordablemri.com/ https://affordablemri.com/
