Thinking About Financing Bypass Surgery? Seven Ways to Weigh the Cost Benefit to Your Wallet

If you’re considering life-changing bypass surgery for aggressive weight loss and a fresh start toward living healthfully, then your research has probably already lead you to a general ballpark figure.

The cost of weight loss surgery depends on your location, hospital, surgeon’s fees and the type of procedure you need. On average, the cost of a lap band surgery is about $14,500 and gastric bypass can cost upwards of $23,000.

Why you should consider financing bypass surgery

Don’t let the price of this incredibly effective weight loss surgery discourage you; Beltre Bariatrics offers premier financing options to help you get the life-saving surgery you need without high upfront costs.

“I’d been wanting to lose weight for about 45 years. At one point, I was over 300 pounds, and I couldn’t walk for about 3 years. I was literally living a handicapped life. My sleeve gastrectomy was a lifesaving procedure for me. I’m a different person inside and out!” – Susan

Here are seven reasons why you should consider financing your bypass surgery:

1. You can’t live without it.
   The cost of living with obesity and its health-related problems is equally as high as bypass surgery when you consider lifelong medications for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes; regular doctor visits, regular blood work and other screenings; participation in weight loss programs, and lost productivity due to injury, illness or depression.
2. Financing helps everyone.
   Financing options are available for everyone, including those who are uninsured or underinsured.
3. You’ll have a finance partner.
   Our friendly, helpful staff will help you navigate the paperwork required for the insurance and financing approval processes.
4. You can pay over time.
   With financing term options up to 60 months, you can find a repayment schedule that fits your budget and lifestyle.
5. There is no collateral required.
   You will not need to offer up assets, like bank accounts, to secure bypass surgery financing.
6. There are no prepayment penalties.
   You can fully repay your loan at any time without incurring additional fees. Any payments made in addition to your monthly payment will be applied to your principal balance.
7. Everything is 100% confidential.
   We offer 100% confidentiality so you can focus on what’s really important; taking charge of your weight and health through bariatric surgery.
