Bariatric Surgery Payment Options

Insurance

Dr. Craig Chang participates in many insurance plans, a list of which follows. As each plan has its own set of coverages, deductibles, and co-pays, we suggest speaking with your provider to understand your benefits fully. Should you need any help or direction, the surgical staff at our office would be happy to guide you in the right direction.

Cash Pay

For patients who do not have insurance coverage for weight loss surgery, a bariatric exclusion in their policy, or who do not wish to go through insurance to supplement their surgery cost or adhere to certain insurance-mandated waiting periods or other requirements, Advanced Bariatric & Surgical Specialists also offers self-funded, or self-pay bariatric surgery options. Our team has worked to make our weight loss surgery pricing transparent and as inclusive as possible.

The billing process should be straightforward and easily understood.  It is important to us that all aspects of the billing process be open and transparent to you and your payor (insurance company and/or other responsible party), and our goal is to make that the case.

Healthcare can be expensive. However, we will do our best to help minimize the cost of your care. If you have questions about your bill, please call the office at 361.570.8585
