The cost of medical treatment in private hospitals in India

India is no more a poor country in 2024. Where are we heading? Can a common man ever dare to dream having treated in a private hospital in India? The treatment by private hospitals are getting doubtful in the mind of people. Are the treatment given necessary? Is the treatment time extended due to money? Is the faith of common man on doctors shaking? 

For a heart bypass surgery at a high-tier hospital like Fortis Escorts in New Delhi (only an example), the per-day expenses for an indoor patient can be broadly estimated as follows:

1. Pre-Surgery (1-2 Days):

Room Charges:

General Ward: ₹5,000 - ₹7,000/day

Private Room: ₹10,000 - ₹15,000/day

Deluxe/Suite: ₹20,000+/day


Tests and Investigations: ₹10,000 - ₹20,000 (one-time during this period)

Medications: ₹2,000 - ₹5,000/day

Consultations and Monitoring: ₹5,000 - ₹10,000/day


Estimated Daily Total: ₹20,000 - ₹40,000.

2. Post-Surgery (5-6 Days):

ICU (1-2 Days):

ICU Charges: ₹15,000 - ₹25,000/day

Medications and Equipment: ₹10,000 - ₹20,000/day

Monitoring and Ventilator Support (if required): ₹5,000 - ₹10,000/day


Estimated Daily Total in ICU: ₹30,000 - ₹55,000.

Recovery Room (3-4 Days):

Room Charges: ₹5,000 - ₹15,000/day

Medications and Nursing Care: ₹5,000 - ₹10,000/day

Follow-up Investigations: ₹5,000 - ₹10,000 (during the stay)


Estimated Daily Total in Recovery Room: ₹15,000 - ₹30,000.


---

Overall Estimate:

Pre-Surgery (1-2 Days): ₹40,000 - ₹80,000 total

Post-Surgery (5-6 Days): ₹1,20,000 - ₹2,40,000 total


Grand Total for 7-8 Days: ₹1,60,000 - ₹3,20,000, excluding surgery fees. Surgery costs (₹2,50,000 - ₹5,00,000) would add to this.

For a more precise budget, consulting the hospital directly is advised.

The medical professionals must focus on it and clear the understanding of people.
