At Echelon Surgical Specialists, we aim to provide clear, transparent pricing without surprises. Procedure prices include all facility charges and general anesthesia at an accredited surgery center with professional operating rooms.
At Echelon Surgical Specialists, our pricelist reflects the total price of the procedure including facility and anesthesia fees, and the price does not change based on how long an individual surgery takes. You will not receive a additional bill beyond the amount listed on your estimated quote sheet for extra facility or anesthesia charges due to length of time in the operating room. You may be required to make a separate payment for anesthesia fees to the surgery center, but this amount will be deducted from the total procedure price listed on your official estimate sheet that you receive on the day of your consultation.
If your surgery runs over by 2 minutes and that generates an extra charge from the facility of $175, the patient will not be responsible for that extra amount.
If you opt to schedule a surgery at a partner facility that requires a separate anesthesia payment and your original estimate from Echelon Surgical Specialists was $10,000, a facility charge of $4500 will be subtracted from your estimate so you will make one payment for the anesthesia of $4500 to the surgery facility and will make a remaining payment of $5500 to Echelon Surgical Specialists for remaining supply fees, surgeon’s fees, and other facility fees.
If you opt to schedule surgery at a facility that asks Echelon Surgical Specialists to collect facility and anesthesia fees on their behalf, these amounts will be estimated on your invoice, but Echelon Surgical Specialists will collect and remit this payment for you.
The self-pay cosmetic procedure price includes facility and anesthesia fees at an accredited surgery center and all post-op followup visits at our clinic. Most procedures include a 3 month supply of scar gel to help your incisions heal. Tummy tuck and circumferential body lift procedures also include two post op compression garments and a long-acting numbing medication injected during your procedure to help your post-operative comfort level for the first 3 days post op. Breast implants and related surgical supplies are included with breast augmentation and mastopexy augmentation procedures.
Self-pay cosmetic pricing does not include preop clearance visits with your primary care provider, any required labs or imaging, medications prescribed to your pharmacy, any future surgical procedures or revisions, or specialized aftercare at other health care facilities including emergency care, wound healing clinics, or lymphatic massage. If you choose to finance your procedure through one of our financing partners, you are subject to the terms and conditions of the financial institution’s policy agreement and this may include additional interest and/or processing fees levied by the financing institution. Echelon Surgical Specialists does not charge an additional fee for credit card payments or financing through one of our partners. The State of Minnesota MinnesotaCare tax applies to all procedures and this amount will show as an additional line item on your invoice.
At Echelon Surgical Specialists, we offer several options for financing your procedure. A 10% deposit is required to book a procedure date. The remaining balance is due 14 days prior to surgery. We accept cash, check, major credit cards, and debit card. Many patients opt to finance their procedure through Cherry or CareCredit. After being approved by one of our financing partners, patients have the options to select a payment plan that is processed two weeks before surgery and patients pay back the financing partner over the time period selected. Pricing is for cosmetic, self-pay (non-insured) procedures.
