Advance Care Card
My Medical Funding
United Medical Credit
***Use the links towards the bottom of this page to apply directly to the companies for financing.***
We have selected these three companies as the best companies to work with when financing tubal ligation reversal, vasectomy reversal, Essure removal, and Essure reversal surgery.
Financing reversal surgery can be a convenient way to have reversal surgery now without waiting to save for the full amount.
How to obtain financing for reversal surgery?
You need to apply to the financing company directly before you schedule surgery.
Once the company approves your application you can schedule surgery with our office.
The Advance Care financing company will provide you with a card, similar to a credit card, that can be charged at the time of scheduling surgery.
United Medical will notify our office of your approved amount before you schedule.
Two of the more unique plans are the My Medical Funding Patient Direct Loan and United Medical Credit Patient Direct Loan. If you are approved the company will send you the money directly and you can then use this money to pay our office for surgery or travel related expenses.
After your surgery is completed, you are responsible for paying the financing company for your surgery over the time frame you agreed upon. Your interest rate and terms are established with the financing company at the time you were approved.
Financing surgery can be a great way to have surgery now…but pay for surgery later.

Have Questions? We’re Happy To Help!
We provide a unique surgical experience with personalized attention and one-on-one care. We make every effort to make your surgery less of a process and more of a life’s experience. Please use the buttons below for answers to our frequently asked questions.
The Advance Care Card is a great way to get surgery now and pay later. The application is simple and you can schedule surgery as soon as you are approved and receive your card.
Approved applicants may receive up to 14 months of interest free financing at very competitive interest rates. The Advance Care card offers borrower’s a better advantage than CareCredit because borrowers can obtain up to 14 months of interest fee financing. CareCredit card holders must pay accrued interest during their no payment period!
With the Advance Care Card credit lines up to $25,000 are available with interest free periods of up to 14 months. Once approved, you will receive your Advance Care Card within 72 to 96 hours by priority mail and you can then schedule reversal surgery.
Ideal applicants are applicants with credit scores above 640; however, the company does have financing opportunities for applicants with credit scores less than 640.
The Advance Care card is a financing tool; however, the card is treated as a credit card. If you qualify for the Advance Care card and pay for your surgery at the time of scheduling then you can obtain the cash discounted price and avoid the higher surgery financing price. Credit card charge fees will apply.
Helpful Points When Applying For Advance Care
Before you apply for Advance Care you should be aware of the following important points:
You must be at least 18 years of age
You cannot have declared bankruptcy within the last 5 years
You cannot have been referred to collections within the last 12 months
Your minimum total household income must be at least $1,500 a month
In general your credit score determines the interest free period you will be offered:
Credit score of 650 or higher… up to 14 months of interest free financing!
Credit score 620 to 650…. up to 6 months of interest free financing!
Credit score of 500 to 620… no interest free financing offered.
After you qualify for the Advance Care card, the company will mail you a card that looks just like a credit card. The Advance Care card functions like a credit card when being used to pay for surgery.
To access the financed money on the Advance Care Card, the card needs to be swiped on a credit card processing terminal and because of this the card holder will be charged a 3% processing fee when the card is used at A Personal Choice.
Although the Advance Care Card functions like a credit card, the card can only be used for services obtained by approved providers and cannot be used for non-medical expenses (ie gas, hotel, or food).
My Medical Funding: Offering Direct Patient Loans
If you have a low credit score or if you would like a direct patient loan then you can apply for a direct patient loan from the My Medical Funding Company using this link:
My Medical Funding is a direct loan program sponsored by the Advance Care company. They specialize in direct patient loans and will even loan money to those with lower credit scores. For some reversal patients this may be very appealing because the money will be sent directly to your bank account… you can use this money to obtain the lower cash discounted fee or use the money for travel related expenses.

1. Have good credit Financing companies are only willing to finance surgery (loan you money) if they feel you are financially stable enough to repay your loan. They do not want to loan money if they feel you will not repay them.
2. Consider applying with a co-applicant (loan co-signer) A co-applicant with good credit can greatly increase your chances of obtaining surgery financing. The companies will often advise our office: A good co-applicant will increase the chances of a loan approval for this patient, allowing them to finance their procedure!
3. What to do if your application is rejected? If your application is rejected you can reapply with a co-applicant or another co-applicant with better credit.
4. Funding amounts You may receive full or partial funding for surgery. The better your credit or the better the credit of your co-applicant then the more funding you can expect.
5. Patient Direct Loan Programs Consider applying for the My Medical Funding Patient Direct Loan or United Medical Credit’s Patient Direct Loan. If you are approved then the loan is deposited directly into your bank account before surgery and you can pay our office as if you were paying directly for your reversal surgery. You can also use this money to pay for any surgery related expenses.
Meet Dr. Monteith
As a surgeon my reputation & integrity are extremely important to me. I’ve been providing new choices & new beginnings since 2008. I’ve had the distinct privilege of being the first surgeon in the world to report successful pregnancy within the peer reviewed medical literature after reversal of transcervical hysteroscopic tubal sterilization. Permanent is not forever at my practice! HAVE QUESTIONS?
“We had our surgery on 3/18/15 and on 02/02/16 our 7 pound 11 oz baby girl was born! I’m 34 years old and had tubal ligation done via clamps 8 years prior so this surgery really does work! 8 years later I had the reversal and 9 years later we were blessed with our little girl! So many doctors tried to talk us out of it-wanted us to do IVF to get our money-however praise God we went with this because it does WORK! Dr M is amazing and his staff! The area is beautiful where his office is, and if you do this procedure it will be the best money you ever spend!”
– Charlee-Belle M., Surgery

They never give you false hope, but give you the complete story. I am so happy that we chose Dr. Monteith and his staff to make our dreams a reality. Can’t wait to start trying to have a baby. I would and have recommended Dr. Monteith to ANYONE wanting a tubal ligation or vasectomy reversal. Thank you all so much for giving us this chance!”
– Angela W., Essure Reversal
“Excellent service overall! Each stage of the process was carefully explained in great detail: how the procedure works, what to expect during the procedure, what to expect after, possible side effects. Dr. Monteith himself is very knowledgeable and experienced and quite personable too. He has a great sense of humor and uses it generously to put patients at ease. I highly recommend him and his staff to anyone considering either a vasectomy or a vasectomy reversal.”
Chris B., Vasectomy Reversal

We currently work with Blue Cross Blue Shield but the end of this year we will not be participating with them. We have been able to submit and get partial repayments for SOME patients….usually anywhere from $400 to $1500. You would have to pay in full for surgery and then we would see what they may pay for…essentially you have to be prepared that the insurance company is not going to pay for any of the surgery.
Insurance will usually not pay for tubal reversal surgery…. no matter what the reason.
We do have a prepayment plan and we do work with two major financing companies.
We have two flexible payment options for you if you dont want to pay in full for surgery: (1) start a prepayment plan with us or (2) finance your reversal surgery.
Prepayment plan. We do have a prepayment plan that allows you to save towards your surgery. You need to start it with at least $500 and you can contribute any amount over the next 3 years. When you have saved the full amount then you can have your surgery. You can have the surgery anytime within 3 years of starting your plan.
If you dont have your surgery by the end of the third you you are refunded all of your money less $500. Surgery discounts, when available, are offered to prepayment account members only.

Patients stay in Raleigh a total of 2 nights and 3 days. The consultation is the first day, surgery the second day, and postoperative visit is the third day.
We do have a prepayment tubal reversal plan that allows you to save towards your reversal over a 3 year period.
Although $6,900 seems expensive…the alternative treatment in-vitro fertilization (IVF) average $12,000 to $14,000 and is about 40% successful!
The main advantage to tubal reversal is that every month you have a chance and you can become pregnant more than once. On average, about 2 out of every 3 women become pregnant with tubal reversal surgery.

If you would like to see if you are a candidate for Essure reversal, your first step would be to send us your records from your Essure insertion procedure and the results of your 3 month follow up x-ray.

Hi I’m interesting in getting my tubal ligation reverse and I don’t know how the military done it in 2003. My concerns is that I had 3 C-section and I reading the information about the concerns of the C-section patient. Can you explain to me in details what are the procedures and the steps? Thanks very much.
If you have questions please call us and we can walk you through the process.
We should be able to help you. You should consider our screening laparoscopy because of your history of c-sections and the possibility of scar tissue.
We charge $6,900 for tubal reversal surgery. You should send us your records from your tubal ligation for a free review. Sometimes patients cannot get their records. Even if you cannot obtain your records we would perform tubal reversal for you because we can reverse most tubal ligations most of the time.
Tubal reversal can be 60% to 70% effective. The other treatment to become pregnant is In-vitro Fertilization (IVF) and this treatment cost averages $14,000 and is about 40% effective for each try.
Tubal reversal is possible when you have a history of multiple c-sections. We have many patients who have successful reversal and pregnancy with a history of c-sections. The biggest concern with multiple (3 or more) c-sections is the possibility of severe scar tissue. If severe scar tissue exists then reversal may not be possible.
We estimate that about 1 out of 12 women with 3 or more c-sections will have severe scar tissue that can make tubal reversal more challenging and in some cases not possible. For these patients we offer a screening laparoscopy. You can consider this similar to a surgery insurance policy.
The laparoscopy costs an additional $1,750.
If you choose to have a screening laparoscopy we can look with a camera during the surgery and see if you have severe scar tissue. If you have severe scar tissue we can often make a different incision…so this can increase the success of your procedure. If your tubes are not repairable or the scar tissue is too severe then we would offer you a refund of your surgical fee.
