Anybody have an approximate idea on what the cost of that might be at CIMA or similar type upscale facility? Thx.
CIMA will usually give you an estimate
Did you see these articles about Dr. Massimiliano (Max) Mauro who is at Hospital CIMA. His telephone and email address is at the bottom of the articles…

Four years ago I had a stone lodged in my ureter that was too big to break up or pass. I had it removed by uretheroscopy, kinda scary for a man, in the Hospital Metropolitan (certainly nor Cima but adequate) and my total cost was $2500 (médico and hospital),general anethesia, no pain and home in four hours. I can send the Drs. name and # by privare message. Don’t want to compete with Dr. Max.

Great information. Thank You. I’m mainly interested in approximate costs comparing CR to US as I prepare to transition for my permanent move to CR. BTW–the cost here at my local hospital for essentially the same procedure you described is double that: $5K and that’s just for the hospital facility.
