I recently contributed quite a bundle to my local dentist. Although I suspect that his charges are toward the low end of the range, it occured to me that I really have no idea of the range of charges other than asking a few friends about their experiences which still doesn't answer the question. Is there any source available to the public from which the most usual range of fees for medical procedures ranging from an appendectomy to a root canal can be obtained? Of course such a range would be fairly large, and would vary with location. Nevertheless, if one were anticipating paying say $500 for a particular treatment, it would be more than interesting to know whether the range for that treatment was $200 to $500, $400 to $600, or $500 to $1000. Thanks, Erv --
