Package

Appendectomy - laparoscopic

Laparoscopic appendectomy is a minimally invasive surgery to remove the appendix, most commonly performed when appendicitis is diagnosed. The surgeon makes a few small incisions in the abdomen and uses a camera and instruments to safely remove the appendix under general anesthesia. Most patients go home the same day or after a short hospital stay. Recovery is typically quick, with most people returning to normal activities within one to two weeks.

What’s the difference between an individual procedure and a Standard Service Package (SSP)?

Individual Procedure

Individual procedures, like blood tests, each have unique prices and billing codes (like a CPT or HCPCS code). While they can be billed alone, they're usually grouped with other procedures on a claim. This grouping is what determines the total cost of your care.

Standard Service Package (SSP)

A SSP combines all medical services, materials, and fees associated with a healthcare visit or procedure into a single bundle to offer a more comprehensive estimate.
