Which doctors cover the price of complications for LL

Edit Post

Hey guys. Ive been thinking about LL and there are a lot of doctors where the price is a good 50k USD which is definitely in my budget. From looking at Paley's website however the total price of complications can be up to 35k, which is two thirds of the starting price. ive been doing some research and it looks like jamal fully covers the cost of complications, and I think monegal fully covers them too. Do you guys know any other doctor who covers the price for LL complications? Also does monegal cover the price of complications like jamal or am I wrong about that?

To clarify I am okay with paying 5k USD for the hospital bill to fix the complication but definitely not 30k.

Aside from Dr Jamal I believe Dr Peng at the Beijing clinic does as well.

here Monegal kind of alludes that he doesnt charge for fixing complications is that wrong?

Yeah precise and the guichet nails are ideally better, but because monegal is like 20-30k below guichet and paleys price, and since I know now he compensates for complications while paley and guichet doesnt Ill still be going with him. I think he said he is willing to use a different nail if you really want though which I could do.

If you want internals, do femurs, 6-7 cm is ok for most of the people.

Not that everyones will- But my insurance covered my stress fracture complication.

Monegal doesn't cover the price of complications. He says he doesn't get money from corrective surgeries after his failed surgeries but the hospital and the anesthesiologist and everybody else gets his money from patients. The guy who does Xrays gets money even if surgery is cancelled. Perhaps Monegal gets money from theirs then although he says he doesn't.
MusicMaker case is special but he didn't pay for her either. She was sent out of Barcelona to be operated in a hospital covered by her insurance. If you don't have insurance you have to pay. When she was sent to Clinica Diagonal not covered by insurance in one of her surgeries she was sent home in one day for nail removal and introduction of new one. Monegal doesn't care about anybody nor about his biggest supporter in this forum.
