Surgery Center Information
The Northwest Thyroid Center accepts most major insurances.
For patients out of state, records can be faxed or emailed for review to determine if you are a candidate for surgery.
Once approved, for surgery, our billers will be happy to submit your surgery fees to your insurance company for evaluation.
We do not charge to review records.
As all surgeries are performed at our facility, we are able to keep costs to the patient low. For those without insurance, we have a bundled rate for your entire procedure including fees for the surgeon, surgery center, and anesthesia.
