Why there isn't one flat price
The cost of PRP depends on what you're treating. Treating a single small joint is different from a larger joint or several sites in one visit, and some cases call for ultrasound guidance to place the concentrated platelets precisely. Because Dr. Hric performs every treatment personally and tailors it to your specific injury, the fee reflects your actual plan rather than a one-size-fits-all package.
Consistent with our Conservative First approach, we'd rather tell you honestly whether PRP is even the right tool before we talk about cost. Sometimes prolotherapy or focal sound wave therapy is a better — and often less expensive — fit, and Dr. Hric will say so plainly rather than sell you the more involved treatment.
Direct-pay, and why insurance usually won't cover it
Great Physician is a direct-pay practice. Most insurance plans still consider regenerative treatments like PRP investigational and don't reimburse for them, so we don't bill insurance and you don't need a referral. That keeps things simple and transparent: you know the cost before you decide anything.
An HSA or FSA may cover it, since PRP is typically a qualified medical expense — worth confirming with your plan administrator. Either way, you'll get the full price clearly, with no hidden charges and no pressure to decide on the spot.
How to get your exact price
Our fees are laid out in a printable pricing sheet you can review any time at /documents/core-treatments-transparent-pricing.pdf, and Dr. Hric goes over exact pricing with you up front at your consultation — before anything is scheduled. That's also when he'll give you an honest sense of how many visits, if any, your situation is likely to need.
The best way to find out is a consultation. You'll get a straight answer on whether PRP actually fits your injury and precisely what it would cost, with no obligation.
