The difference in price depends upon the medical procedure you choose. In reviewing the cost of many procedures in the US, versus the same ones performed in India. Costs are typically 50-75% lower in India. The greatest cost savings is typically found in orthopedic / cardiac procedures (75-90% lower fees outside of the United States). If you have received quotes in the US for $10,000, you can expect the same procedure to cost between $2,500 and $5,000. This significant cost reduction enables you purchase a round trip air ticket, recuperative holidays post - treatment in a lazy beach location in India and return home saving money.
