How much does gastric surgery cost?

 

How much does gastric sleeve or gastric balloon surgery cost?

Treatment for a bariatric procedure can be expensive and complex to understand. Over the last 15 years at CWLS we have made it as simple as possible for you. We understand that every patient is in a unique position and you will be given an estimated quote of the fees and charges before your visit.

CWLS charges a ‘Service Fee’ that allows us to cover all the additional costs related to;

  • Surgeons
  • Surgical assistants
  • Pre-operative medical specialists
  • Administration & hospital bookings
  • Dieticians
  • Nursing support
  • Psychologists
  • Medicare claiming

A detailed and informed financial consent will be provided at your initial consultation with our Australian trained and internationally experienced surgeons

Do you offer payment plans?

We are also excited to advise that affordable payment plans are now possible through Total Lifestyle Credit. This is to ensure surgery is more accessible for patients who are in need of financial assistance.

TLC are the only patient funding platform to be approved by APHRA

If you access their website, you will find more information and determine if you are a candidate. Patient financing is completely independent from the clinic and can cover from $2000 to $50,000 including all treatment fees. The terms are flexible up to 84 months and there is a fast efficient approval process with online application. There are also no early payout fees.

Our advice to all patients is to be financially responsible when undertaking finance for elective surgical procedures. If you would like more information, you can contact our rooms directly and our support staff will be happy to help.

Can I pay for surgery with my superannuation?

Under special circumstances (if your BMI is greater than 40 or BMI of greater than 35 with co-morbidities), our patients can apply to access their superannuation to fund either a portion of or the complete total of their costs.

We can certainly assist you with the paperwork required to start the process during your initial consultation with our Surgeons. Certain criteria needs to be met in order for you to be considered and approved.

We advise you to be financially responsible to determine if this is the best option for you. There may be implications of accessing your superannuation. Please contact our rooms for information.
