Insurance Coverage for Frenuloplasty of the Penis

Most insurances provide coverage for treatment of frenulum breve of the penis with frenuloplasty or circumcision when frenulum breve causes problems such as tears, irritation, pain during sex and bleeding.  

We require prepayment in full for frenuloplasty.   Part of or the full cost of frenuloplasty may be covered by commercial insurance plans after deductibles/coinsurances/copayments if circumcision is performed for a medically necessary reason and if you have out-of-network benefits.  

Same-day frenuloplasty is convenient for patients from outside the New York area and can save a lot of money.

If frenuloplasty is performed for non-medical or aesthetic reasons, medical insurance does not typically cover the costs of aesthetic frenuloplasty.

When Does Insurance Pay for Frenuloplasty?

Insurances pay for frenuloplasty or frenulectomy when there is a medical need. In other words, when the frenulum of the penis is causing a problem. Examples include:

  • Pain with erections or during sex
  • Penile curvature causing problems
  • Infection of Frenulum (Genital warts, etc)
  • Pain or Bleeding During Sex

The cost of frenuloplasty depends on whether it is performed under local anesthesia in the office settings or in the hospital with anesthesia.  The cost is higher if performed in the hospital or ambulatory surgery center.  We typically perform frenuloplasty in our office under local anesthesia with minimal discomfort.

See a list of insurances that we accept.

Frenuloplasty in Our Office, Surgical Center, or Hospital.

Typically the cost of circumcision is least when performed in a sterile room in the office settings. It is more expensive by $1,000-$3,000 in the outpatient surgery center and can cost anywhere from $2,000-$5,000 more if performed in the hospital.

Circumcision under local anesthesia is the least expensive as it can be performed in the office setting which avoids the charges associated with surgical centers and hospitals. It also avoids the cost of anesthesia and the anesthesiologist who provides it.

At New York Urology Specialists, more than 90% of our patients choose to have frenuloplasty of the penis under local anesthesia in the office settings with a high degree of satisfaction.

We offer affordable rates for penile frenuloplasty for treatment of frenulum breve of the penis whether done in the office, surgery center or hospital. Please contact us for our current rates.

Same-Day Consultation and Frenuloplasty Option

We offer an innovative same-day consultation and circumcision service for men who are busy or are traveling to have a circumcision done in our office. This allows you to combine the initial visit and circumcision.  For many men who are visiting out of the area, this can translate into significant savings.
