Cost of cosmetic foot surgery?
P.S. insurance doesn't cover cosmetic surgery.
Answers: That is not cosmetic surgery if you are have something on your toe corrected so your insurance should cover. Also there is no track to know the cost or even approximate cost as we don't know what kind of surgery you would hold and what the doc needs to do to correct your problem and what surgery costs are within your area. Corrective surgery is covered by insurance so construct an appointment with your podiatrist and capture this checked out and they will tell you how much your insurance will cover etc.
Well, a uterine fibroid removal cost $30,000 2 years ago. The toe's not too invasive, comparatively speaking, and could probably be done on out-patient starting place. I'd guess it would cost you about partially that.
It may be considered cosmetic if you want it done so your toe isn't crooked, or something like that. But if your toe deformity/problem cause you PAIN, then it should be labeled as corrective, or critical. That's not elective surgery I wouldn't think and I would consider it WOULD be covered. So long as it causes you chronic discomfort.
It hurts all the time, doesn't it? That should be covered.
