Factors that affect the cost of kidney stone surgery in Hapur

Hospital charges- 

Selecting the right hospital is the first and foremost task before deciding the course of the procedure. It is important to choose a healthcare facility with modern infrastructure and advanced facilities for a high success rate. Hospital charges include admission fees, hospital stay (if required), miscellaneous charges, etc. Selecting the right hospital will minimize the financial burden and ensure a smooth surgery experience. 

Every hospital or healthcare facility has its cost structure depending on the quality of infrastructure and the availability of modern tools and technology. You can select a private or government hospital as you see fit. Here are some factors that you must consider before selecting the right hospital – 

  • Patient’s reviews

  • Good infrastructure
  • State-of-the-art facility
  • Availability of machines for diagnostic tests
  • Accessibility via public or private transport
  • Availability of rooms for stay (if required)

Anesthesia Cost –

Kidney stone surgeries are performed under anesthesia. The doctor administers spinal or general anesthesia before the surgery to ensure the patient does not feel any pain throughout the surgery. The cost of anesthesia can differ based on the type of anesthesia (local, spinal or general), and may add to the overall cost of kidney stone surgery. 

Cost of ureteral stents –

Ureteral stents may be used where the surgeon is required to break the stone into smaller fragments. Stents expand the ureteral passage to allow the stone pieces to smoothly flush out of the body without causing much pain. The cost of stents can differ depending on the type and material of the stent. 

Medication cost –

Several medicines prescribed by the surgeon can help you recover after the procedure. Since there may be some pain after the surgery due to stent insertion, the surgeon usually recommends several pain killers, diuretics, etc. for a smooth recovery after the surgery. These medications reduce the pain after the surgery and help with the recovery. The cost of medications can vary depending on the recovery process of the patient. 

Post-surgery consultation charges –

Post-surgery consultations are important to ensure a smooth recovery and avoid any chances of complications. Therefore, visiting the doctor after your surgery for follow-up sessions is usually recommended. Each follow-up session is usually charged depending on the urologist. 

However, Pristyn Care offers free consultation after the surgery depending on the type of procedure. Get in touch with us to know more about the kidney stone treatment cost and how you can get a cost-efficient plan for your procedure.
