Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 I would like to hear more about Ambulatory Surgery Center myself. I am a self pay patient and need to save all the money I can. Please fill us in. Debbie in Raleigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 Hey...Dr. R, or Sherry.... Can we have more info about this Ambulatory Surgery Center? I also wanted to ask about being discharged the same day as surgery (I saw on the website that 2 people have done that so far). Since I may very well be self-pay, I'd like to know about these options. I understand of course, that someone would be discharged same day under absolutely great conditions and don't expect that if there was any question as to how someone was post-op that they would still be allowed to go.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 Hi, All I know about is that when I talked to Barbara yesterday she said there is another place that they are now doing self-pay patients - . Her remarks were that Dr. R. had been there (or done surgery there) and thought well of the place and the personnel - the bonus for self-payers is that it is a little less expensive that Durham Regional - $7000 up front as opposed to $11,000. It is also near the clinic. That is all I know for now. Sherry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 I think Dr. R is referring to only his charge for surgery being self pay - not the hospital charges. Someone correct me if I am wrong. Joanne in Ohio Tricia Bardell wrote: > Hey...Dr. R, or Sherry.... > Can we have more info about this Ambulatory Surgery Center?
