Last week we paid $8,900 for an ACL repair in Virginia Beach, VA.
The patient had a deductible of just under $4,000.00.
Giving employees a raise is a big deal!
I cannot give Everyone a raise, however I can give a good number of employees around the US raises.
Approximately 100,000 Americans have ACL repair surgeries per year (274 patients per day).
The national average for an ACL repair is $22,700.
Patient choice is essential.
In this case, the patient chose a high-quality surgeon at a direct contract facility with a no balance bill clause and met the physical health requirements.
The patients deductible was reduced to $0.00 and can invest the out-of-pocket dollars towards something meaningful.

We paid $3,150 for a Carpal Tunnel release in Evanston, IL.
The employer gave the patient the option to travel less than 2 hours and have the procedure paid in full or go to the hospital chosen by her physician, #Ascension and pay her deductible.
The employee chose not to stay in Wisconsin.
Instead of paying Ascension a $5,900 reimbursement, the patient didn’t have to pay her deductible of $2,700.00
