What it is

This lower-back surgery removes part of the bone (lamina) and, when needed, a herniated piece of disc to take pressure off a nerve root at one spinal level. It is often called a microdiscectomy and is done for leg pain (sciatica) that does not improve with other treatment.

What the price covers

The facility price covers the operating room and recovery. The surgeon, anesthesia and any overnight stay are usually billed separately.
