Financing

We believe in transparent pricing, and understand how important it is for patients to know the total cost of surgery up front. We utilize all-inclusive pricing, so that our patients are not surprised with additional fees after surgery. Our all-inclusive pricing includes the following:

  • Surgical Consultation
  • Pre-Operative Visit
  • Surgeon’s Fee
  • Anesthesiologist Fee
  • Operating Room Facility Fee
  • Implants
  • Pathology Fee
  • Postoperative Care Kit
  • Surgical Bra
  • Compression Garment
  • All Post-Operative Visits
  • Scar Care (silicone strips, steroid)
  • Any Required Revisions (Approved by Dr. Kulkarni)

Dr. Kulkarni’s surgical consultation fee is $250, which is applied to any surgery scheduled within 6 months of consultation. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice will forfeit the prepaid consultation fee.

Surgery is scheduled with a 20% nonrefundable deposit, with the remaining balance due 2 weeks prior to surgery.

Insurance

DC Plastic Surgery Boutique does not participate with insurance. We are out of network for all insurances. This means that if you have a surgery that can be billed to insurance, we collect fees up front and you submit a claim to your insurance company for reimbursement after surgery. If you have out-of-network benefits and your claim is covered, any reimbursement will go directly to you.

Breast reduction surgery is the most common surgery for which patients inquire about insurance coverage. Most insurance companies use an objective criteria (the weight of the breast tissue removed during surgery) to determine whether breast reduction is medically necessary. Based on your physical exam, Dr. Kulkarni can give you an idea of whether or not you might meet insurance criteria. The amount of tissue to be removed is determined by each insurance company, but typically ranges from 500-1500 grams per side. Many insurance companies take your height and weight (Body Surface Area) into account and use the Schnur scale to determine the amount of tissue to be removed. If you have questions about insurance qualification for breast reduction, please do not hesitate to ask at your consultation and we can guide you.
