Dr. K and Medicare...out of pocket cost for RNY to DS revision?

Ive decided Im going to try to have RNY to DS surgery with Dr. K.  Im going to probably have to look at CareCredit or Surgery Loans to cover what my Medicare (part A and B) wont cover.  What Im looking for is a ballpark figure that those who have had revision surgery with Dr. K and are on Medicare paid out of pocket so I can estimate how much of a loan Im going to need to apply for.

Because of Medicare requiring a COE facility, Id be having surgery in Delano.  Im also aware of the $4,000 program fee.  

Once again, thank you so much for the advice and feedback I have received so far.  I did try using the search feature to avoid asking an already answered question, but I saw mostly posts discussing the program fee only.

Paula - good decision! I wish I could help with the question about out of pocket, but I can't. Hopefully someone else can. I can only say that you will be in good hands.
