FINANCING REVERSAL SURGERY
Surgeries like tubal reversal, Essure reversal and vasectomy reversal are considered elective surgeries. These surgeries…just like cosmetic surgeries… are not considered medically necessary. As a result, health insurance plans will almost never pay for fertility or cosmetic procedures.
Medical financing companies help patients to pay for elective surgeries like these that are not covered by health insurance. These companies can help you obtain what you otherwise may not be able to afford.
Financing surgery can be a great way to have reversal surgery now and pay gradually over time after your surgery has been completed. A Personal Choice has partnered with leaders in the industry of medical financing.
The financing companies below are accepted by our office:
- CareCredit

How to obtain financing for reversal surgery?
You need to apply to the financing company directly before you call our office to schedule your surgery.
Once the company approves your application you can schedule surgery with our office.
- CareCredit and Advance Care financing companies will provide you with a card, similar to a credit card, that can be charged at the time of scheduling surgery.
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 later. The only downside to this approach is that you may end up paying more over time for your surgery because of added cost of interest accrued with financing.
