Muhammad I’m researching septoplasty options in Houston. Does anyone know how the costs compare to NYC or LA?
Amit Houston Septoplasty Costs Typical Range: $3,500 to $11,000, depending on the provider, facility, and complexity of the surgery[1]. Median Cost: About $9,461, based on data from 47 Houston-area providers[2]. Hospital/Facility Range: Many hospitals and surgical centers in Houston list prices from $4,800 to $15,000[2]. Insurance: Most insurance plans will cover septoplasty if it is medically necessary and referred by an ENT or primary care physician. Always confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs with your provider[7]. NYC Septoplasty Costs Typical Range: $4,000 to $10,000 is common for standard septoplasty, though some providers and facilities may charge up to $15,000[3][4][10]. Average Cost: Most patients can expect to pay around $10,000 when using experienced ENT surgeons[4]. Cosmetic Procedures: If septoplasty is combined with cosmetic rhinoplasty, costs can rise significantly, sometimes reaching $10,000–$30,000, but insurance usually does not cover the cosmetic portion[8]. Los Angeles Septoplasty Costs Typical Range: $6,000 to $30,000, with most standard procedures falling between $8,400 and $23,100[5][6]. Median Cost: The average cost is about $13,621 across 111 providers in the LA area[6]. Insurance: Like other cities, medical necessity usually means insurance will cover a substantial portion, but cosmetic add-ons are extra[5].
