I haven't been to an ENT as of yet, but I've been having some trouble breathing for about the past year, and I've also been told I snore by my partner, which is as far as I know a recent development. If I were to have the septoplasty portion covered by OHIP, roughly how much could I expect to pay for the addition of a cosmetic component to such a surgery? I am not happy with the way my nose looks and if I could kill two birds with one stone that would be fantastic.
Answer: Rhinoplasty cost My experience with getting reasonable insurance coverage has been disappointing. The total cost of your procedure will probably be in the $8000 range. However, insurance may only cover a few thousand and that might not even enable you to cover your deductible.

Answer: Cost of a rhinoplasty and a septoplasty The cost of the rhinoplasty is determined by a combination of 3 fees: These are time in the operative room, time under anesthesia, and the surgeon's fee for performing the cosmetic rhinoplasty. A septoplasty is performed only after examination and consultation of the internal portion of the nose to document it for medical necessity. There are many other components inside the nose that can cause nasal obstruction such as turbinate hypertrophy, valve collapse, allergies, and chronic sinusitis. Each one of these treated differently with either medications or surgery. When the functional component of the surgery such as a septoplasty is billed to the patient's medical insurance for medical necessity, the co-pays and deductibles still apply to the anesthesia, operating room and surgeons fees. These determinations can be made only after consultation and examination in the office when pre- authorization is performed.

Answer: Septorhinoplasty Surgery Septorhinoplasty is a combined procedure allowing both functional and aesthetic changes made to the nose. The "septo" portion addresses the breathing function and the "rhinoplasty" portion addresses the aesthetic or cosmetic changes. When seeing your surgeon for consultation an examination is done which will determine whether or not you have a deviated septum and what the degrees of deviation are. This will also determine other factors besides the deviation that may need corrected i.e. turbinate reduction to address breathing function. Once it is determined that these factors are causing problems then a pre-certification can be done to your insurance company to determine if or what percentage of the procedure they will cover. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
