I'm an RN that is researching the SB charite artificial disc prosthesis and I am desperately trying to find out the cost of the disc and the procedure. Do the benefits outweigh the costs??

Thank you

It depends on how many levels and where you have your surgery. My price for a three level in Germany is about $50,000 plus hotel, airfare and incidentals.

I have gotten two consults on cervical surgery, two levels. One, in the US, with 1 ACD and 1 ACDF is about $29,000. For 2-level ADR in Germany it's about $32,000. Airfare and hotels extra in both cases.
