Self-Pay Pricing
Exceptional care. Transparent pricing. No surprises.
We've designed our self-pay program for patients who value clarity and quality. Self- pay pricing is available to patients who do not have an insurance plan that we are contracted with. We encourage patients to consult with their insurers for specific questions about their coverage should they decide to consider self-pay pricing and have insurance. Prices listed are estimates for standard services. Additional diagnostic, supplies, or complexity may change the final cost. Please call 949-586-3200 or e-mail us at info@scosortho.com for more information.

Self-Pay Pricing – Frequently Asked Questions
What does "self-pay" mean?
Self-pay means you are choosing to pay for your care directly, rather than using insurance. This may apply if you do not have insurance we are contracted with, or if you prefer not to use your insurance benefits.
What is included in the listed price?
The listed price includes professional fees for SCOS physicians only.
What is NOT included in the price?
