Many doctors have special rates for self-pay patients that are significantly less than what they charge insurance companies. I paid $15,100 for mine here in Austin, TX. I would suggest taking to a surgeon and seeing what their self-pay rate actually is first.

Try looking for a bariatric surgeon that is not employees by a hospital(private practice). Their rates will typically be the most reasonable and have the flexibility to work out of a surgical center rather than a full blown hospital.

Anyone knows any bloodless surgery hosiptals in Mexico. I am suppose to have surgery July 3 but now I am not so sure. All of these months I was told NJ BCBS covers the surgery. Now no one sure. I wont know anything until Monday. I am trying to do research just in case. I really don't want to move my date if I have to self pay. I waited 6 months. I am out of school soon and I can't take days off in September.

I'm not sure what is meant by "Bloodless surgery". Best I can tell is you are looking for laparoscopic surgery? If that is the case laparoscopic surgery is standard procedure in mexico pretty much all don't this way.

Ok, I looked up the definition of Bloodless surgery. Being a laparoscopic surgery, and one that is done on an outpatient basis in most of the US, VSG does not require the transfusion of blood or platelets. So pretty much anywhere you go, you are gonna get a "bloodless" surgery.

I'm thinking....$60K- usa vs. $8750 Mexico....$51K different....you could make a huge down pymy on a house, buy a car, a new ward robe after surgery, remodel your home....

It is about YOU! and no one else.

Good luck I had a wonderful experience...

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
