I was in the hospital for one night after my myomectomy. Here's the bill from my

hospital. My myo was done in September 2003 by Dr. Gaither in Newton,

Mass.

Medical/surgical semi-private room: $862

Pharmacy: $321

IV Solutions: $198

Medical/surgical supplies, other: $151

Cytology: $45

Histology: $120

Operating room: $3,577

Anesthesiology: $464

Recovery Room: $1976

____________________

Total: $7,464.44

In addition, Dr. Gaither charged $3,100. My insurance company paid him

$1,237, which was the maximum amount he could get from them under his

contract with them.

So if you add the surgeon's fee ($3,100) with the hospital fees

($7,464), the total amount billed for the myo comes to $10,564.

My insurance covered everything except my co-payment and a $250 charge for

hospital stays.
