Why gastroenterology doctors refer you to most expensive facility?Because they make 40% of additional income that they partially own.Transparency in Prices for higher facility fees.

We saw a statement made by one gastroenterologist,”We make 40% extra income by using our partially owned surgical facility.” He was saying that is the big reason for us making more than employed GI doctors.

So you as patient end up paying 2500-5000$ extra for facility fee-far higher than 750$ charged by American Colonoscopy and Endoscopy center located in Geneva,Il..

So ask this question,“ Do you own this facility that you are sending me -partially?“ as employed doctors may have a share in the facility they send you to.

They may not make the full amount of 2500-5000$--but share it according to their % owned.

So remember--it is their financial arrangement--that makes their facility better in their argument to you.
