What is Cash-Pay Surgery and Who Needs it?

Cash-pay or self-pay surgery options are ideal for patients who have high deductible healthcare plans (HDHP). A high deductible healthcare plan that has a lower monthly premium and higher deductible in comparison to a traditional health insurance plan. This can become a big road block for patients who are in need of surgery and are looking at hospital based procedures. 

If you are a patient who has a high deductible, if you are self employed or if you don’t have any insurance at all, a great option to consider will be cash-pay surgery/self-pay options that focus on cash-based surgeries. Whether its a bilateral hernia surgery, a necklift, or a shoulder manipulation surgery, cash-pay surgery with Smith Medical means transparent costs.  

A cash-pay treatment, procedure, or service is one that does not involve insurance. These business models only accept direct payment from the patient being seen for services. This means it is a point-of-sale transaction for your cash-pay surgery service. At Smith Medical we ensure that all of pricing can be found right on our website, and is clear from the very first interaction you have with us.
