BARIATRIC PROCEDURE COST COMPARE TOOLBack to Page
Bariatric Procedure Cost Compare Tool Your out-of-pocket bariatric surgery cost can range anywhere from $0 to $20,000 or more depending on several factors, including: WHETHER YOUR INSURANCE COVERS IT – many insurances (including Medicare, Medicaid, and many individual/family and employer-provided policies) cover the majority of costs for gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, LAP-BAND®, and duodenal switch. The other types of bariatric surgery are less likely to be covered, although you may be able to get insurance to pay for some of the costs. Tap the “With Insurance” button in the tool to see average out-of-pocket costs per procedure after insurance pays. See our Insurance Tool to find out if your plancovers it.
WHICH PROCEDURE YOU CHOOSE – if insurance won’t pay, costs range anywhere from $8,000 to $20,000+, depending on the procedure. Tap the “Without Insurance” button in the tool to compare the national average self-pay costs for each procedure. (NOTE: Some surgeons offer each procedure for as low as half of the national average). HOW COMPETITIVE YOUR SURGEON AND HOSPITAL FEES ARE – there is often a substantial difference in costs between different doctors and hospitals, even within the same town. WHETHER YOU QUALIFY FOR TAX WRITE-OFFS – Bariatric surgery is tax deductible, which can have a big impact on the total cost of surgery. You can deduct medical expenses if your out-of-pocket costs are more than 10% of your adjusted gross income. See our Tax Tool to find out if your bariatric procedure will be tax deductible. HOW YOU CHOOSE TO PAY FOR YOUR PROCEDURE – If insurance covers it, you’ll only be responsible for any copays, deductibles, and coinsurance required by your specific plan. If you pay for the procedure without insurance, total costs will depend on how you pay. For example, your surgeon may offer a discount if you pay the full amount up front, and you can make the costs more affordable by applying for bariatric surgery financing.
