Many factors into play ma'am, but around 6000 $ in my opinion
Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. Well the price/cost differs from one country to another, and also from region to region within the same country.
But in the USA, if you are covered by your insurance then it should really not cost much. But if you are not insured, then it can hurt the pocket.
Before telling you what the approximate cost can be, I would like to state that a metallic rod and screw removal is only suggested when it seems to be causing symptoms like pain, redness, swelling, irritation, nerve compression, etc. So unless you do not have any of these symptoms or any other that are causing your discomfort, then you need not remove the rod and screws ma'am.
But if you are not insured and decide to remove the rod, it can cost anywhere between 2500-10000 $, depending on the hospital, and other such factors.
I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.
