Reduced Stress
The convenience of staying in your home generally makes recovery time quicker and easier than an in-hospital stay.
Since there are no hospital room charges and related hospital charges, costs are much lower for outpatient surgery. Some insurance companies will cover certain surgical procedures only on an outpatient basis, unless your physician certifies that you require a more intensive level of post-operative care due to an underlying medical condition.
In the majority of cases, outpatient surgery is less stressful than inpatient surgery. This is especially true for children who are afraid of being away from home. Most people prefer to recover in their homes rather than in the hospital, and we will do our best to make sure that happens for you!
