I just had my first series of 4 plasmaphersis in mid-December while I was in the hospital for a crisis. The bill hasn't been submitted to insurance yet, but the nurse who did the treatment one day said she believed they billed $5,000 per treatment (mine was inpatient as opposed to outpatient). If that's the case, I know the insurance company will probably pay them less than half of that. I live in Ohio and have very good health insurance coverage thru my husband's employer. I'm sure the cost may vary somewhat from state to state and country to country. I'll post back on this thread when I see what they billed.

I'd also be interested in what other people's insurance was charged & paid.
