     We are shopping for a new hip, and hoping to pay for it without insurance. The prices quoted for this have been suprisingly diverse. I have talked with Triangle orthopaedics, UNC, and Central Carolina Orthopaedics in Sanford. Does anyone have any experience with, or recommendations for this operation, surgeon, or hospital. I am especially interested in hearing about Central Carolina Hospital.  Thanks, Chris
