Prostate treatment choices and out of pocket costs.

Greetings all. I read a lot on here about choices and outcomes and all great information, but don't read a lot about out of pocket expenses for brachytheropy vs EBRT vs Robotic Surgery. Has anybody got any insight?

  1. Hi . I can't speak to the specific out of pocket expenses as some of this will depend on facility and location and the insurance that you have. I do want to share with you this article from our contributor Diane on finding a treatment location and questions to ask in the process: https://prostatecancer.net/living/right-treatment-center. Any hospital or facility should also have a social worker or office that handles helping patients with these types of questions. Hopefully others will chime in with their experiences.
