quote:Don't know that much about plastics but with lasik for $2500 per eye or something like that, I would imagine those are physician owned stand alone clinics and are fairly routine and vary very little as to time, equipment,etc. They might lose on a few but far more are uncomplicated and they know what kind of profit margin they want and charge accordingly. Not many hospital procedures are that straight forward.
like that people couldn't offer things like lasik and plastic surgery with price schedules

Really? Setting a broken bone? Appendectomy? I'm not saying that those procedures will be routine every time, but "not many"? I'm having a hard time believing there's just no such thing as routine medical treatment. If people can laser your eyeballs for a predictable price they can stitch you up or set a broken bone for a predictable price.
