You can ask for a price estimate of the surgical procedure from the billing department through the following telephone number: +32 2 614 26 60 by giving them the RIZIV code 241872 (day hospitalisation) – 241883 (overnight).
The price of an inguinal hernia repair will vary depending on the technique used (laparoscopic or open) and also according to the size (area) of the prosthesis placed during the procedure.
The price of the procedure may increase in case of complications.
The choice of room, private or double, is decided solely by the patient, with the understanding that care is the same regardless of the room chosen. Of course, the personal comfort of a single room is calculated into the cost. This extra income benefits the hospital and individual doctors. St Elizabeth’s abdominal surgeons stand by the rights of patients.
The patient is discharged the day of the surgery and does not stay overnight in the hospital.
The result is an estimate.
The total price of surgery may vary depending on the necessary pre- or post-operative examinations or additional care.
