Surgery and treatment costs in India

Huge savings can be made in India on general and specialist surgery. In the UK the typical waiting time on the NHS for a cardiac-by-pass is ten months and to have this operation done privately it would cost between £14,000 and 17,000. However, in India the cost is £3,750*, which, even with flights and accommodation on top, is over one third cheaper). (*Quote from Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi, India).

It can take up to 11 months on the NHS to get a hip replacement and privately this would cost between £9,000 and £13,000. Compare this with India where you can expect to pay just £3,600* for the treatment done privately. (*Quotes from Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi, India).
