Cost of Surgeon for Temporal Lobectomy
Tue, 02/19/2019 - 19:32Topic: Surgery and Devices
Hi, I'm trying to get an idea of the surgeon cost for a temporal lobectomy in a private hospital. My health fund covers the hospital.
Going to see him in a couple of weeks but just want to get an idea to see if it's in my budget or i'll have to wait for public.
Thanks,
Hi Shannon, I know the total

Hi Shannon, I know the total cost of my surgery, but my costs included all the needed testing (EMU,MEG, SPECT, & SEG) prior to surgery, I’m not sure if these would be included under your coverage or not?Best to check with the hospital and your insurance company.
