What is the proce break if the group has a Doc that is doing the surgery?
How much of the cost for cyberwear, cosmetic surgery, bioware, ect ect., is the actual cost of the 'parts' plus the supplies used in the surgery? As opposed to how much of the cost is paying the surgery team. |

In my games ... none! After chargen, I rule that surgery costs money over and above the cost of the implant itself. Exact costs for the procedure usually depend on a number of different variables (but that can be said for the cyber itself as well). |

Additinally, if the team has a member who is also a Doc, he would need to get and maintain his medical center(This would not be part of his lifestyle anymore then a Riggers Facility would be part of theirs). He would likely have to restock up on things like Anasthetic, sterlization stuff, etc. Since scalpels and stuff are disposable and replaced each surgery RL, this would also be part of his cost. Now, normally, a Contact Street Doc is buying things in bulk, and essentially gets the business to replace these things normally(since he is also doing normal medical care, and patching people up), but, your PC Doc would not have that luxury, so it would probably be MORE expensive for your PC to do it then it would be for a Contact to do it.
