Can anyone tell me how much does the ICM and its insertion cost in the USA?

Mine was done in Pensacola, Florida at Baptist Hospital on 8 March 2018. Cost is almost $ 30,000. But it was done in Heart Cath lab, which drives up the cost. Should be done in outpatient setting, which is what my cardiologist EP stated. Simple procedure, local anthestic, went home in less than one hour. No pain, dressing came off on 11th, and Sterri strips came off yesterday. Works great. Battery life is good for years. Made by Medtronic, called the Reveal. Do Google search. Love Slovenia

My procedure was $20,000 -- but could have been far less, I believe - if performed in the clinic as opposed to an outpatient surgery center like mine was.
