Blackhawk Plastic Surgery & MedSpa has announced a financial assistance program providing $1500 toward cosmetic breast surgery procedures at its Danville, California facility. The program launches as healthcare facilities nationwide seek methods to address financial barriers to elective surgical procedures.
The assistance program applies to breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, and breast revision surgeries performed at the practice. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast-related procedures remain among the most requested surgical interventions, with over 400,000 procedures performed nationally in 2023.
"The introduction of this financial assistance program reflects current healthcare accessibility challenges in elective surgery," said Dr. Stephen Ronan, board-certified plastic surgeon at Blackhawk Plastic Surgery & MedSpa. "By reducing the financial burden, we enable patients who require these procedures for medical or reconstructive purposes to proceed with their treatment plans."
The program addresses various medical indications for breast surgery beyond aesthetic considerations. Breast reduction procedures can address documented cases of chronic pain and postural problems, while reconstruction surgery assists patients following mastectomy procedures. The practice reports that approximately 40 percent of breast surgeries performed address medical rather than purely cosmetic concerns.
Current industry data indicates that cost remains a primary barrier to surgical care, with average breast procedure costs ranging from $4,000 to $12,000 depending on complexity and geographic location. Financial assistance programs have emerged as one response to these accessibility challenges, particularly for patients whose procedures may not qualify for insurance coverage despite medical necessity.
The Danville facility offers consultation services to determine procedure appropriateness and medical necessity. Virtual consultation options are available for initial assessments, with the practice also accommodating out-of-state patients through its established fly-in program.
Dr. Ronan maintains board certification through the American Board of Plastic Surgery and holds memberships in multiple professional organizations. The practice employs current surgical techniques and maintains accreditation standards required for outpatient surgical facilities in California.
The financial assistance program operates alongside existing financing arrangements available through third-party medical lending institutions. Eligibility determination occurs during the consultation process, with program terms subject to individual patient qualification.
