Paying cash: what to do
- Ask for a bundled self-pay price that includes the surgeon, anesthesia, facility and follow-up visits; hospital file prices usually cover only the facility.
- Ask whether the procedure can be done in the office or a surgery center with local anesthesia, which usually costs far less.
- Ask whether hand therapy after surgery is included.
