Smith Medical: Cash-based Surgery
Smith Medical Direct Specialty Care: Great Surgeons with
Cash-based surgery is a growing movement within healthcare that aims to provide better access to surgical procedures for patients. At Smith Medical we are a cash-based surgery center that is insurance-free. By skipping insurance companies and their bureaucratic red tape, cash-based surgery allows patients to pay directly for procedures, cutting out the middleman, reducing costs, and improving doctor-patient relationships and services.
This model also gives patients more control over their healthcare decisions by allowing them to choose their surgeon and facility based on reputation, quality of care, and cost transparency.
Additionally, cash-based surgery can result in shorter wait times for patients as they are not dependent on insurance approval processes. Cash-based surgery can offer a streamlined and efficient option for those seeking timely access to quality surgical care.

How Direct Specialty Care Works
All of our surgeons at Smith Medical are insurance-free and cash-based that way we can improve access to a wider variety of patients while ditching the middleman that is insurance. This allows us to keep surgery costs lower and charge patients a fair price for what each surgery is worth it, rather than having to create a huge mark-up on the surgery that ends up in the pockets of insurance companies.
Because of this, we attract incredible doctors, surgeons, and staff members who will be fairly compensated for their time and effort, and they get to truly connect with patients rather than go through a process that isn’t true to the nature of medicine, with insurance.
Instead, all of our patients are seen, and given the time and energy they deserve with a single, all-inclusive price point that encompasses preliminary appointments, diagnosis, testing, surgery, facility fees, and post-surgical appointments. Our goal is to create a surgery experience that has zero surprises.
Financial Help With Care Cards
Financial help for insurance-free surgery can be a crucial resource for individuals who do not have health insurance coverage or whose policy does not cover certain procedures. At Smith Medical our goal is to keep our prices as low as we can to create better accessibility for all kinds of patients.
We offer financial assistance programs to help offset the costs of direct specialty care surgery for patients who need financial assistance through the use of Advance Care Cards that help support patients finance their surgery.
These programs may include sliding scale fees based on income, discounted rates, payment plans, or assistance with applying for government-funded healthcare programs. Additionally, nonprofit organizations and charities may also provide grants or funding to help cover the cost of necessary surgeries.
It is recommended that individuals in need of financial help for insurance-free surgery reach out to their medical provider or local community organizations to explore available options and resources to make their needed medical care more affordable and accessible.
