I can empathize with Scott and Zeke regarding costs. Wife has colon cancer and is doing chemo. She’s had six procedures, three more to go. Cost per treatment around $3-4K as an outpatient. Not including pills she has to take and Dr. Visits. Medicare and supplemental has picked up most of the cost. So far we’ve paid $600.00 out of pocket. My hospital O.R. cost for a 2 hour stay when I had the Urolift done was over $14k. Procedure to install staples was $8900.00. If we didn’t have some health insurance and VA, it would have put a hurt on our savings. Hospital stay and costs are astronomical.
