What is the cost of finger amputation surgery?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The cost of having one's finger removed - - presumably due to an accident or disease - - depends primarily on the location of the medical facility where the operation would take place (i.e., country, state or province, county, town, etc), what insurance the individual has (i.e., socialized, group, individual, etc), and how much of the finger is to be removed. Without such information, there is no way to give a single, simple, all-encompassing, answer.
