I'm having an appointment in a few weeks with an otolaryngologist for a possible deviated septum. I read somewhere that septoplasty can be covered by insurance and performed together with rhinoplasty. Would this lower the cost of a rhinoplasty ? Do i need to inform my doctor for this to happen ?

Answer: How much would a rhinoplasty cost if my insurance is covering septoplasty? Rhinoplasty is much more difficult than A septoplasty procedure, so choose your surgeon very wisely based on extensive experience producing natural results. A rhinoplasty and a septoplasty are two completely separate procedures, however they can both be performed at same time. There's really not much cost savings performing them together since there will be anesthesia, operating room, and surgeon's fees for both procedures. The rhinoplasty procedure will take much longer than the septoplasty procedure, since it's much more complicated. When performing a septoplasty, medical necessity must be documented time of the examination and consultation, and preauthorization with your medical insurance is required. Expect to pay for rhinoplasty component yourself.

Answer: Septoplasty covered, rhinoplasty not covered The cost of your surgery is affected by a number of items, one of them being septoplasty; The more timely and thus expensive component though is the rhinoplasty portion. A consultation is necessary to provide you an estimate of the time it would take to fix your nose and thus to provide you an accurate estimate.
