@cleveland26 I knew what in situ meant because I was an RN so familiar with the term. Did your assuming Medicaire pay for the wand as in my google searches saw that right now the wand use is being reviewed to see if it's going to be paid for by insurance. Said that some facilities have the $1500 to $2000 Wand not being charged to patients till this has either been approved or not by Medicare. How long ago did you have your procedure?

Can't believe you would be given general anesthesia and been expected to drive to another facility with a fresh open wound !

Wrote the Dermatologist office and said I do not want to be cut. So will see what the office says tomorrow.

@2buddy I used confusing language about the general
anesthesia. The general anesthesia would be used in the plastic surgeon's office, following the Mohs surgeon's office ( which would have used a local.)

Regarding insurance, I don't have Medicare Part B. This is under a separate health insurance plan. My plan includes a $50 per session co-pay. I have not received the final bill. The cost of the ultra-sound wand before each session hasn't come up, at least not yet! Have a happy result!
