Cosmetic Surgery And Costs at the Marietta Center Most insurance companies will not pay for procedures that are strictly done to enhance beauty with no perceived medical benefit (e.g., a face lift, rhinoplasty). Therefore, these procedures can cost patients thousands of unreimbursed dollars. Payment for treatment at the Marietta Plastic Surgery Center is due seven to ten days prior to the procedure. They are teamed up with a finance company where patients with good credit may apply and qualify for loans. The website also suggests to patients that they should charge the balance of expensive procedures to their credit cards. One policy is curious and should be highlighted. If, through surgeon error, the cosmetic surgery must be revised the patient is not billed for the surgeon's time (at least, not the second time around), but the patient is still billed for anesthesia and operating room supplies. Since this can be a hefty chunk of the cost of cosmetic surgery, patients considering undergoing procedures at the Marietta Plastic Surgery Center should be sure they trust their doctors! In fact, it's always a good idea to check with the state board of medicine to make sure no active complaint is pending against your surgeon. One phone call can make the difference between a happy outcome and a difficult one. (During minimal online research, no active complaints against the Marietta Plastic Surgery Center were noted.) |
