◆ CHAPTER 04 · THE PLAYBOOK

Save thousands.
in five moves.

The path most cash-pay patients take through Austin’s market. Skip a step and your bill doubles — sometimes triples.

01
STEP 01
Get imaging first.
Most ortho visits start with an X-ray or MRI. Pay cash for imaging ($85-$900), bring the CD. Saves 40-60% vs. ordered-by-surgeon imaging.
02
STEP 02
Specialist consult.
Cash consults run $185-$475. Many Austin specialists see self-pay patients same-week. Bring your imaging.
03
STEP 03
Try conservative first.
PT + injections resolve ~60% of cases. Unit rates are $75-$145 cash. ASCs bundle 6-12 sessions.
04
STEP 04
If surgery: get 3 quotes.
Bundled cash quotes vary 2-3× between facilities. Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) beat hospital pricing on 95% of outpatient ortho.
05
STEP 05
Book 4-6 weeks out.
Cash-pay often gets earlier scheduling than insurance (no prior-auth). Deposit typically 20-50% at booking.
