Delayed Medical Procedures Due to Time Constraints

The costs

  • Bladder Leakage Treatment Average Cost: $900 Per Year
  • Cost for Bladder Leakage Treatment with Curaechoice: $0 Out-of-Pocket

Theodora's medical journey

For years, Theodora delayed addressing several medical concerns due to lack of time as a working mother. Once she had the opportunity, she took advantage of Curaechoice to get multiple medical procedures covered at little to no cost, drastically improving her quality of life. As a self-described “super user” of Curaechoice, she has maximized its benefits across multiple healthcare needs. 

Theodora utilized Curaechoice for a deviated septum correction at Tuscaloosa Surgical Center, a procedure that drastically improved her breathing and sleep quality. Before the surgery, she often felt congested and struggled to get restful sleep. With Curaechoice, she had zero out-of-pocket costs, saving hundreds of dollars compared to traditional insurance costs. Another issue she resolved was bladder leakage, a common problem for women post-pregnancy. Instead of opting for invasive bladder sling surgery, she received a Botox-based procedure at Women’s Urology of Alabama, a less invasive, outpatient treatment.

She also benefited from physical therapy for sciatic nerve pain, provided through Curaechoice, at University Orthopedics in Tuscaloosa. She expects that most, if not all, of these costs will be fully covered through Curaechoice. This included three sessions per week for two months, helping her avoid surgery and return to an active lifestyle.

I used to work in medical billing, so I know how expensive these procedures are. Curaechoice saved me from spending hundreds if not thousands of dollars. It’s incredible.

I tell them, ‘Go get this done! There’s no reason to put it off when it’s covered.’ Curaechoice has been a game-changer for me.
