I had (and have) no insurance and required surgery to repair
severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

I found an orthopedic surgeon who would take cash.

I was informed that the procedure would have run $5,600
if I had insurance.

Cash - $1,932 for everything - surgery, office visits, follow up, etc.

It makes a huge difference, doesn’t it? Mine was a top rated doctor, as well.

These good deals apply only to expenses for things that can be done in the doctor’s office, don’t they?

What about a heart operation, for instance?
