I am trying to find some numbers on what the SCS surgery costs along with future costs of having it in. With future doctor visits and everything else that comes along with having it done including removal, battery replacement and so on. I have tried to google it with no success.

I understand different insurance's will have different rates they have to pay, but if you could give me some numbers of what you paid or your insurance carrier paid, that will give me a good start point.

Or if you could even direct me to a website that may have that info as it is eluding me and I usually can find info, but not on the SCS costs and such.




Also, can you list all things associated with the SCS that will cost money.

Example:

Doctors visits
Battery replacement
Removal
Travel COst
Hospital cost
and so on.



I need to get a real good idea of what the life time cost may be to have an SCS implanted.



Thanks in advance.


You all are wonderful.
