Insurance will not pay. Those of you that chose to self-pay, are there any medical procedure financing companies that are easy to work with? I am looking at having the surgery done in the states.

Thank you.

Here are a few links to companies that provide financing for non-covered medical procedures. I would suggest, however, that you go to your local bank and inquire about a personal loan first. You may find that you get a better rate. I was self-pay and we obtained a personal loan from our bank. Good luck!

I was a self pay and went thru citi bank, They have a special plan for cosm. surg. Its like a car just harder to reposess..=)

1888337-4171 option 2

my op was 16k and my payments are 412 a month.

Im financed through Captial One at 8.9% fixed rate

I'd also check with your doctor and hospital. Mine has a major discount for people who are self-pay. Might be worth checking into...

Is that for 5 years? Do they do 10 years? hehe

I called them again today, and explained the situation. They are sending me some loan info.

I went to advancedpatientfinancing.com and they provided my info to several lenders and picked the best interest rate.

I think 60 months was the max, I chose it because I can always prepay with no penalty.
