Transparent, Accessible Pricing
We believe exceptional non-surgical orthopedic care shouldn't require insurance or an exceptional price tag. Below are our current cash-pay / self-pay rates — no hidden fees, no surprise billing.
Personalized Case ReviewIf You Have Insurance, Read This First
With the exception of PRP (and hyaluronidase for Fascia Hydrodissection, when indicated after the first procedure), every service on this page — every office visit and every other procedure listed below — is billed to your insurance if you have an accepted plan (Cigna, Anthem Blue Cross, Aetna, United Healthcare, or Medicare PPO). You should never be charged the self-pay prices below if you have applicable insurance.
The self-pay / cash-pay prices on this page apply only to patients without applicable insurance coverage, or who choose to pay directly instead of billing their plan — except for PRP and Fascia Hydrodissection. PRP is a regenerative treatment not typically covered by major insurance plans, including the plans we accept, so it is cash-pay for all patients. For Fascia Hydrodissection with accepted insurance, every procedure is covered by your plan. If hyaluronidase is indicated for an additional procedure, it carries a separate $0–$150 charge, as hyaluronidase is not covered by insurance; otherwise, the additional procedure is still covered by your plan; without applicable insurance, the first procedure is $100 and each additional procedure is $100–$200.

Why We Show Self-Pay Pricing
Everything on this page is covered for patients with an accepted insurance plan except PRP, which is cash-pay for all patients, and Fascia Hydrodissection, where additional procedures beyond the first may include a separate charge for hyaluronidase, if indicated, which is not covered by insurance — the self-pay prices above only apply to patients without applicable coverage, or who choose to pay directly. A low-cost, transparent $80 consultation — with diagnostic ultrasound included when appropriate — keeps the front door to care open to everyone regardless of insurance status, and our self-pay procedure pricing is intentionally set below what many corporate clinics in Orange County charge, so patients paying out of pocket still have access to advanced, ultrasound-guided orthobiologic care.
Cash-Pay Pricing & Financial Policy
Insurance is billed by default. With the exception of PRP (and hyaluronidase for Fascia Hydrodissection, when indicated after the first procedure), every service listed on this page is eligible for insurance billing. If you have an accepted plan (Cigna, Anthem Blue Cross, Aetna, United Healthcare, or Medicare PPO), we bill your insurance for that service, and you are responsible only for your plan’s usual cost-sharing. The self-pay rates listed on this page apply only when you do not have applicable insurance coverage, or when you choose to pay directly instead of billing your plan. PRP is not typically covered by major insurance plans, including the plans we accept, so it is cash-pay for all patients. Fascia Hydrodissection is priced per procedure: with accepted insurance, every procedure is covered by your plan. If hyaluronidase is indicated for an additional procedure, it carries a separate $0–$150 charge, as hyaluronidase is not covered by insurance; otherwise, the additional procedure is still covered by your plan; without applicable insurance, the first procedure is $100 and each additional procedure is $100–$200.
Cash-pay / self-pay rates are separate from insurance billing. The self-pay prices above are separate from, and may differ from, our fee schedules for insurance-based billing, including PPO plans, Medicare PPO, workers’ compensation, and TRICARE. If you elect to pay a self-pay rate for a service instead of billing your insurance, OC Musculoskeletal Medical Center will not submit a claim to your insurance carrier for that service, and you agree to waive your right to submit a claim for reimbursement of that service yourself. Just let our staff know before your visit whether you'd like a service billed to insurance or paid for directly, and we'll confirm your eligibility and coverage.
