Fees & Insurance
Reconstructive Surgery
All patients desire the restoration of “Normal”- the best possible result is our goal.
The cost of reconstructive surgery includes hospital operating room and possible overnight hospitalization charges, anesthesia fees, and surgeon’s fees. The patient is responsible for these costs.
We are a provider for Medicare. Medicare covers 80% of the costs. The patient is responsible for the remaining 20%, unless he or she has has supplemental coverage.
If you do not have insurance, the cost of your surgery will be provided to you, prior to the procedure. These costs are your responsibility. Because the hospital and anesthesia offer their services at a reduced rate, when paid prior to surgery, all surgical fees must be paid in advance.
We are not a provider for other insurances and may not accept their fees as full payment for care. To see Dr. Menick, you may use out of network benefits. If you do not have out of network benefits, you may request that your insurance carrier allow you to be treated by Dr. Menick, under special circumstances, because of his expertise and experience. We see many patients, with especially difficult problems, that other surgeons do not feel comfortable treating. Other patients with more “simple defects”, or with a poor result from past repairs done elsewhere, just prefer to see an “expert”.
Dr. Menick’s office can help you make these arrangements and obtain pre-authorization. Under those circumstances, your insurance may pay for the hospital, anesthesia, and part of Dr. Menick’s fee. You will be responsible for the difference.
Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery is performed to reshape normal structures of the body to improve appearance and self-esteem. Cosmetic surgery is not covered by health insurance. Hospital, anesthesia, and surgeon’s fees are provided prior to your surgery.
