Whats the Average Price of Panniculectomy During Hernia Repair?

August 16, 2012
Asked By:peachy72187

I am 25 years old with 3 kids (all 3 c sections), and I have lost about 75 lbs. I am at my goal weight of 121 and I am 5'5. I have a small amount of excess skin on my lower stomach. I have Tricare Prime insurance and they are paying for ventral hernia repair. I was wondering around how much I would have to pay for a panniculectomy in conjunction with a hernia repair.
