We all know healthcare costs are out of control. Not only are they high, they are also frustratingly unpredictable. While we can’t change the high prices everywhere else, what we can do at Surgery Center of Oklahoma is make them predictable. In most ways, we’re like every other surgery center or hospital operating room. We have the top surgeons and anesthesiologists in the state performing hundreds of different surgeries in our 32,535 square foot, multispecialty facility. We have all the same capabilities and technology.

But unlike most other surgery centers in the US, we publish comprehensive, complete, all-inclusive prices for every single surgery.

I recently had my first real surgical procedure, and I'm curious what it cost.
However, I am on Medicare and I believe they limit what the hospital can charge for the surgery.

Those costs are for the procedure only there is a dozen more charges involved and will multiply the final costs including renting hospital the room. Specialists for everything. My wife had knee replacements and the cost was on 100k each one. Thankfully she had really good insurance at work.

Yes, they do have a "disclaimer" that makes it sound like they can tack on lots of extra costs.

It's important to realize that no one ever actually pays that $100K, it's just a completely imaginary number far above actual costs, a number which can be used to intimidate those without insurance.
