Payment Options

For many people, weight loss surgeryis an affordable health option because it is covered by many health insurance plans.  For patients whom do not have access to this option, Barrington Bariatric Center offers a unique program to allow you to achieve your goals.  We have created a Fast Track to Bariatric Surgery Financial Program to assist patients whom:

  • May want to self pay for bariatric surgery (i.e. may not want to wait 3 - 6 months to complete their insurance plan’s medically supervised diet plan)
  • Do not have bariatric insurance benefits (i.e. employer excludes the benefit or does not offer health insurance)
  • Are not able to meet their insurance policy’s requirements (i.e. documented 5 year history of morbid obesity)

We offer this comprehensive Fast Track to Bariatric Surgery Financial Plan with our expert surgeon, superior support staff, and the most advanced surgical options - all at a very competitive price.   Please contact our Insurance Specialist at the following phone/email link for more details.  Cleary, we feel it is important to understand the value of asking - WHAT IS THE COST OF NOT HAVING SURGERY? 

If the average morbidly obese patient dies at age 55 and surgery can extend life by 20 years, then the cost per day for bariatric surgery priced at $24,000 is $3.28 per day for those remaining 20 years.

What does approximately $3.28 equate to?

  • pack of Diet Coke        
  • Bag of Chips               
  • Starbucks Coffee         
  • Happy Meal at McDonald’s

In addition, Barrington Bariatric Center is pleased to offer patient financing options.  We have established relationships with both commercial lenders and medical specialty lenders specializing in bariatric surgery.  Please ask our Insurance Specialist about rates and details at your consult appointment.
