FOR THOSE WITHOUT INSURANCE:

More and more Americans are without health insurance and the Houston Hernia Center has responded with the most affordable fee in the nation. Most of our patients do not have health insurance.

One single charge covers the surgeon’s fee, anesthesiologist fee, a State Certified Ambulatory Surgical center, and mesh materials. No other center offers this as affordably and safety as the Houston Hernia Center.

The total costs are often $15,000 to $20,000 BELOW standard charges that most surgeons and hospitals charge.

All operations (which include Inguinal, Umbilical, Epigastric or Incisional Hernias) are performed with a Non-Tension technique with Meshes. This technique has the lowest chances of recurrent hernias in the future. Tension techniques in which Meshes are Not used have the highest recurrence rates and increases the chances that a redo operation will have to be done in the future.

INSURANCE

Most insurance plans cover the treatment of hernia. Specific coverage will depend on the details within your policy.

HOSPITAL AND AMBULATORY SURGICAL CENTERS (ASC)

With patient safety and convenience in mind, all surgeries are performed in only a licensed Hospital or Ambulatory Surgical Center. Our center is equipped to handle surgical emergencies and are staffed by Board Certified Anesthesiologists that can handle Cardiac and Pulmonary complications. None of these procedure are performed in a doctor's office but in a fully staffed Ambulatory Surgical Center or Hospital.
