Out of pocket expenses for Mastectomy
Good Morning !! Just wanted to check how much are the out of pocket expenses for Single Mastectomy? How much extra Breast Surgeon and Plastic Surgeon charge? I know it will depend on the surgeon...
Hi @desinha everyone is different but my experience through private healthcare was - lumpectomy $250 excess and $200 surgeon gap. Partial mastectomy no excess as I had already paid it this year, $300 surgeon gap and $300 anaesthetist gap. Full simple mastectomy with auxiliary lymph node removal no excess $500 surgeon gap and I am yet to receive a bill from the anaesthetist yet. Hope this helps. Good luck with everything.
