Orthopedic Surgery Costs Around the World

Orthopedic surgeries comprise all the surgical interventions which have to do something with joints in the body, be they knee joints, elbow joints, hip joints, or any other. As such, they are usually necessary so that the patient can continue their life in a normal fashion. However, more often than not, these procedures are not covered by insurance. Instead, the patients have to search for the best deal as a way to get the necessary operation and not pay ridiculous amounts of money. Because of this, a lot of these patients turn towards foreign countries as a way to save money.

Knowing this, we have decided to compile a list of our more monetary favorable destinations where you can get a quality orthopedic service without paying too much. It should be noted, however, that a low price does not guarantee a service of the finest quality. You should look for other factors, aside from the price, when you decide on a clinic and a surgeon who will conduct the surgery; factors like experience, quality of the facilities, and the doctor’s knowledge should be the primary things you should look at. Only then should you see what the price is.

What’s the Cost Around the World?

The costs of these surgeries differ greatly across the world for the simple reason of different overhead costs. This includes the costs of equipping the clinic and upgrading the equipment, the cost of paying the staff their salaries, and, of course, paying rent which is higher the more developed the country is.

When looking at the prices available on Placidway, we can come to some conclusions. The prices for orthopedic procedures range greatly, starting from $486 for an Arthroscopy in Poland, to an ACL repair surgery in the USA which costs $144,950. The average price for an orthopedic surgery on Placidway is around $8,000. This is the price that we recommend looking for, as it will ensure that you do not spend too much money, while at the same time getting the quality procedure that you need in order to continue to have a healthy life. However, this is just our advice and you are free to do with it as you please.
