Subject to the foregoing exclusions and other stipulations that may be contained herein, prices include the costs of surgery, the doctor’s fees, hospital or surgery room fees related to the surgery, medical supplies related to the surgery, anesthesiologist’s fees and all follow-up appointments. Lab tests, pre-op workup, post-op medications and any garments needed are extra.
Price quotes do not include post-operative lodging accommodations or airfare. All prices are “net”, with no further discounts. In the case of a medical emergency you should be prepared for additional costs should hospitalization or other emergency medical treatment be required. Some patients may need certain medicines that are required and prescribed by a Cardiologist i.e. Clexane or similar, and if needed the cost is extra. For eyelid surgeries, some patients may need prescribed eyedrops, and if so the cost is extra. For some patients i.e. those having multiple procedures or a medical condition that requires it, a blood transfusion may be required, and if so the cost is extra. In the event of any medical complications requiring special or specific antibiotics not normally in the surgery center, the cost is extra.
Following surgery, patients are released to the care of the Costa Rica Medical Center Inn nursing staff. Some surgeries may require a scheduled overnight stay at the surgery center, and if so, the cost is included in the price quote. All prices and services whether in our emails or website are subject to change without notice and are not guaranteed. If coming without a firm advance price quote from our doctors, you may send some photos and a medical questionnaire form our web site and a quote will be prepared for you.
