Hi all,
Very interesting info here. The hospital that I was talking about that quoted me the $20,000 for the ADR used to be called Midway Hospital and now is called Olympia Medical Center. It's in Los Angeles.

Century City hospital quoted me a price somewhere in the $78,000 price, back to tryinmg to get Medicare to reimburse the going price.

Cervie best wiishes for your surgery with Dr. Regan! They won't change their minds if they have already booked you, it's getting past the booker that is the difficult part.
It certainly is depressing having to be on hold with life because some non-medical people make decisions that affct how you can live your life. People seem to change their tunes when it happens to them.
