If you are ineligible for insurance benefits, you may qualify for our EXPRESS PAY
PROGRAM. This program offers our patients a package plan covering several
services. It includes: pre-op and 3 post-op visits with a Dietician; pre-op
and 4 post op Personal Trainer sessions; pre-op EKG; pre-op blood tests
(excluding the pathologist’s professional fee); pre-op Chest X-ray; Hospital
Admission for surgery including one night stay (any additional hospital
stay, including re-admission for surgical complications, will be billed separately);
Surgeon’s fee including pre-operative consultation, gastric banding surgical
placement, 2 gastric banding adjustments, and routine post-operative care for 90
days following surgery (surgical complications billed separately); Anesthesia
for the initial surgical procedure only; and pre operative Professional fees
including Radiologist and Anesthesiologist.
Psychological evaluation is required for all patients and is often covered by insurance
plans, even if weight loss surgery is not covered. If this evaluation is
not covered by insurance, an additional payment of $150 will be made to the psychologist.
Laboratory professional services will be billed separately by Boyce and Bynum Pathologists,
but may be covered by insurance.
Our current EXPRESS PAY PRICE is just $12,500, which we are confident
is the best value for gastric banding surgery in Missouri. Payments are made in
three installments:
- Initial Surgical Consultation, due at the time of Consultation: $125 (If
surgery is scheduled, this will be applied to the total package price.)
- Initial Evaluations, due before scheduling dietician and physical therapy sessions:
$500
- Final Surgical Payment, due when surgery date is confirmed: $11,875.00
We accept checks, money orders, Visa, Mastercard, or cash. Multiple financing options
are available and our business staff will be happy to discuss these programs with
you at any time.
These prices are subject to change and you should verify that these fees
are current at the time of your initial consultation.
