Lapband costs..

Thread Starter  

Someone had asked for the approx price of a gastric band awhile back and I have just located the price for the 10cm Inamed band which is $2995/ea for the particular facility I have found. I am not sure how much variance there would be for the 9.75cm or the 11.0 cm. However, I do see 3 different catalog numbers and these subsequent sizes which confirms there are 3 bands distributed by Inamed instead of two. This particular facility appears to use only the 10cm. Interesting. This is, of course, their cost and does not reflect the markup to the patient.

After further investigating. It appears the 9.75 is the same price.
