Vasectomy reversal costsIf you change your mind and decide to undergo a vasectomy reversal, you may be surprised to learn that this surgical procedure is not covered by your health insurance policy, even though the original vasectomy was. With the procedure costing between $6,000 and $18,000, most often a vasectomy reversal is a decision based on both financial and emotional capabilities.
There are several costs associated with a vasectomy reversal surgery. The first and most obvious cost you must pay is for the surgery itself. Most qualified surgeons will charge from $2,000 to upwards of $10,000. Men who are considering a vasectomy reversal should be aware that it can be safer to find a quality surgeon rather than settling on one that appears to fit your budget. Studies and statistics indicate clearly that vasectomy reversals performed using microsurgery are far more successful than those performed using older methods. There are many urologists claiming that they can effectively perform, or they "know how to" perform, reversals operation. However, while they may understand the principles of the procedure, the fact is that they may not be trained in microsurgery. Take care that your surgeon must be licensed to practice medicine in your state. It is also crucial to ask how many microsurgical vasectomy reversals he have performed and the success rate. The more experience they have the better chance you have of reaching your desired results. The other variable in costs is the number of procedures required by the reversal. This is dependent on how long it has been since your initial vasectomy. The next cost you will pay is for the anesthetist's fee charged for the local or general anesthetic. Depending again on how many visits your reversal procedure takes, these costs range from $2,000 to $6,000 Last but not least, the hospital will charge you fees for the few days that the Hospital will take care for you after the procedure. In addition, you will be also charged for any lab performance that is required after your operation. An option for reducing the expense is going to other countries to have the reversal procedure. You may go to Canada, India, Philippines, Brazil as medical tourism is growing due to the highly trained staff as well as the massive costs savings. Of course, this option involves and travel costs. However, even with the cost of travel, it is possible to pay significantly less money than having reversals in the US. |
