Kids are no different than adults, we all get the same devices. It depends on where you are, your drs and your insurance. I've had 4 now. The least expensive was $1000 out of pocket, the worst was over $10K. Seems like each one the deductible gets higher and the amount covered goes down.

I had mine replaced about a month ago. I saw the claim on my insurance web site. The insurance was billed around $55,000, they're paying around $33,000. Mt cost is $150. (I was expecting it to be $500 so was happy) It all depends on your insurance, deductible, etc.

With my old insurance I paid nothing for my original implant and a replacement.

Just because you have a device doesn't mean you are damaged goods and can't do anything worthwhile and have to lie down and die. In fact, you're better and stronger. You're bionic!
