I have a friend that needs gastric bypass surgery but has no health insurance. Does anybody know or have an idea how much the whole procedure would cost in Rhode Island? Surgeon, anesthesia, hospital stay, surgery, everything involved with it? Thank you for your help.

I am in RI and am permenently disabled so am on medicare with BCBS as a secondary. When I got a copy of bills from my BPD it said $40,000. This was at RIH with Dr. Roye. I did have a few complications and had to stay in the surgical step down longer.
