My doc priced it at 15,600. (But that doesn't include any pre-op
procedures/testing/doc visits.)

My bills totalled about 26,000 and I paid 1000 out of pocket. I would think
it varies depending on location and cost of living etc. Best of luck to
you!

The amount billed to my insurance company was approx. total of $66k
including all tests. I had a $1,200 max out of pocket. With a PPO plan like
I have they contract the pricing so ultimately the insur co paid around
$29k. You will get varying amounts because of where you live, insurance
plan, any complications or additional work like gallbladder removal, etc.

Just had mine done 10/26/2009. Self Pay. Surgeon 7,500. Hospital
(overnight) 11, 000. Did not get bill from anesthsia yet. Although my
insurance did not cover surgery (no co-morbidities) they did pay for all
the testing.

I just had lap RNY almost 4 wks ago and I got the hospital bill this past
week, it was approximately $23,000 and that didn't include the charges from
my surgeon.

Between my co-payments and what the insureance did ad did not cover it all
averaged at about 30,000.00 dollars. Out of pocket with this was about
$3000.00. But the affects on my body, the practically painfree days, the
increased energy, a better spirit; more smiling inside and out AND being
taken off almost ALL of my medications.....PRICELESS !!!!! It is worth
every payment.
Good luck and I hope this helped

At Rocky Mountain Associated Physicians (one of the best in the west)in
Utah for the Docs and the hospital RNY was $18,900 for LapBand it was
roughly $15000 and for the Duodenal Switch it was $25000. Those prices are
from December of 2008 when I had my RNY. Good luck. Every surgeon is
different and every hospital is different. My friend had the same surgeon
but was required to use a different hospital by her insurance and the
hospital portion was more expensive, but then she had insurance so she
didn't care.
