Package

Tonsil and/or adenoid removal

Tonsil and/or adenoid removal is a surgical procedure to remove the tonsils and/or adenoids, small areas of tissue at the back of the throat and behind the nose, when they cause recurring infections, difficulty breathing, or other complications that do not improve with other treatments. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes less than an hour, with most patients going home the same day. Recovery takes one to two weeks, with soft foods and pain management important during healing. Your doctor will provide specific care instructions based on which tissue was removed.

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.
