At The Orthopedic Surgery Center we offer a 23 hour stay option for joint replacement surgeries. Patients who meet specific physical criteria with optimal home support systems may be candidates for this joint replacement program. This allows patients to bypass extended hospital stays. Prior to the surgery date, our facility offers a total joint replacement class to provide education on what to expect before, during and after surgery. Following the 23 hour stay, patients will be provided with home physical therapy and nursing visits for 3 weeks. Benefits to this type of recovery include decrease rate of infection, quicker recovery time as well as decrease in cost due to extended hospital stay.

Our total joint surgeons at The Orthopedic Surgery Center have performed more than 500 joint replacement surgeries with the 23 hour stay option since 2016.

Paying Your Surgery Center Bill

Financial Counseling

You may receive a bill from The Orthopaedic Surgery Center. This will be a list of charges for services you received at our facility for your care. We understand that medical billing and insurance is very complex and overwhelming at times and would like to make this process as simple and transparent as possible. Our team may work with you days before your scheduled surgery to make available pricing quotes based on the services that will be provided. These price quotes are only an estimate. After your claim has been processed by the insurance provider, we will send you a final bill. This should match your EOB or “explanation of benefits” you receive from your insurance provider. To fulfill our commitment to simplicity and transparency with our patients, our financial team will ask every patient to pay their co‐pay, deductible, and co‐insurance at the time of their scheduled surgery.

Uninsured Patients

Our Team at The Orthopaedic Surgery Center has simplified the state of today’s healthcare environment through direct healthcare delivery via “price transparency.” Traditionally, consumers are unaware and kept in the dark about the actual cost of healthcare. Price differences for the same service can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on the facility you choose. Every procedure performed at the Center has been assigned a total cost, with one all‐inclusive charge to the patient who is eligible and opts to participate in our program. There are no hidden fees, no multiple bills, just honest pricing that you deserve. If you are a self‐insured business, have a high deductible plan, have means to pay for your healthcare directly, or do not have insurance at all, please look at our value.

Transparent, package pricing means each patient will know the cost of the service upfront. To learn more, look at our price list.
