02 · What moves the price

Six levers that shift the quote

Two quotes from the same hospital can differ by 40% once you drill into the details below. Ask your case manager to break out each line.

  1. Surgeon seniority

    Senior consultants with 20+ years and high procedure counts command 20-40% above junior attendings for the same operation.

  2. Hospital tier

    Flagship JCI-accredited facilities cost more than local tier-2 hospitals, even for identical procedures. The gap is usually 30-60%.

  3. Room category

    Private-room vs twin-share vs deluxe suite can shift total package cost by 10-25% on longer admissions.

  4. Implant or device brand

    For joint replacement, cardiac valves, or dental implants, the device brand alone can change the bill by $1,500-$4,000.

  5. Length of stay

    Complications or unplanned ICU days are the biggest variance driver. Ask for the per-diem overage rate upfront.

  6. Pre-op workup

    Imaging and labs done overseas aren't always re-done locally. If they are, budget 8-15% extra.

03 · What's in the package

Included, and what isn't

Usually included

  • Surgery + anaesthesia fees
  • Standard private or twin-share room

  • Discharge medications for the admission period
  • Case coordinator during admission

Usually extra

  • International flights + visa fees
  • Hotel before admission / after discharge
  • Complications or extended ICU days
  • Premium implants (e.g. branded heart valves)
  • Long-term medications
  • Follow-up teleconsults after the first 30 days

04 · FAQ

Questions that come up a lot

Is double lung transplant safe in these countries?

Yes — at JCI-accredited facilities. The variable isn't country; it's surgeon and hospital. Ask for surgeon-specific procedure volume (aim for 100+ per year for elective work) before booking.

How long do I need to stay?

28 inpatient days is typical, plus ~180 days local recovery before you're cleared to fly. Build in a few buffer days in case labs or imaging flag something.

Does my insurance cover treatment abroad?

Some international policies (Cigna, Bupa, Allianz, AXA) reimburse at overseas JCI hospitals. Most domestic insurance doesn't. We confirm cashless vs reimbursement before admission — share your policy and we'll verify.

What's included in the package price?

Typically: surgery fee, anaesthesia, standard room, standard implants, routine post-op imaging. Not typically included: airport transfer, hotel, complications, premium implants, extended ICU days. Quotes always show the split.

How do I choose between countries?

For routine procedures, go on price + your visa ease. For complex cases, go on surgeon-specific volume and outcome data — which we request from each hospital before presenting quotes.

Can I travel home right after?

Commercial air travel post-surgery depends on the procedure and the airline's medical-clearance policy. Most cardiac patients fly 10-14 days post-op; orthopedic patients 7-10 days; cosmetic 5-7 days. Your case manager will flag the specifics.

Quote anatomy

What's typically included in your double lung transplant quote

Every quote we surface is itemised at this level before you commit. The line below names what you should expect inside the package versus what's typically billed separately — read both sides before comparing prices across hospitals.

✓ Included in the package

  • Surgeon and anesthesiology fees

    Lead surgeon fee, named consultant assists, anesthesia consultant — all line-itemised in the quote at the named-consultant level, not as a pooled charge.

  • Operating-theatre time and standard implants

    OT time at the agreed hospital tier, single-use sterile consumables, and the implant brand specified in your quote (you'll see Zimmer-Biomet vs DJO vs Smith & Nephew called out by name where applicable).

  • 28-night standard ward stay

    Inpatient nursing, routine medications, pathology, in-house imaging, daily consultant rounds, and physiotherapy where indicated — for the duration the surgeon's care plan calls for.

  • First post-op follow-up consultation

    One in-person follow-up before discharge clearance, plus a written discharge summary in English with imaging and pathology attached.

  • International-patient department support

    Visa-invitation letter, airport pickup, hospital-direct check-in, in-language interpretation where needed, and discharge-day medication walkthrough.

Typically billed separately

  • ICU days beyond the standard care plan

    Routine ICU is included; days beyond the surgeon's expected protocol (e.g. unexpected post-op complication) are billed at a published per-night ICU rate. Always ask for the rate at quote stage.

  • Premium implants or upgraded brands

    If the surgeon recommends a premium implant (e.g. ceramic-on-ceramic hip, custom-cut knee, drug-eluting stent variant), the price differential is shown line-item at quote review.

  • Pre-op tests not covered in the package

    Most pre-op blood work, ECG, and chest X-ray are included; advanced imaging (MRI, CT, PET) and cardiac stress tests beyond the package list are billed separately.

  • Extended pharmacy and home-care medications

    Take-home medications past the discharge-day supply, branded substitutes for generics in the package, and specialty therapeutics (e.g. immunotherapy, novel anti-coagulants) are quoted separately.

  • Travel, accommodation, and recovery hotel

    Flights, family member accommodation, and recovery-period stay (typically 180 days post-discharge) are not bundled — but our coordinators can arrange medical-grade hotel rates with the hospital's negotiated partners.

  • Revisions, second surgeries, complications

    If a surgical revision is medically indicated within the agreed warranty window (varies by procedure and hospital — typically 90 days for cosmetic, 1 year for orthopedic), pricing terms are spelt out before you sign.

Watch out for

Red flags in quotes and clinics

  • No published lung transplant volumes or survival results.
  • Promising a lung within a fixed date, with no explanation of allocation rules.
  • Any suggestion that organs can be bought or arranged outside the legal donor system.
  • No structured plan for bronchoscopy, spirometry and rejection checks after discharge.

Questions

What to ask before signing the quote

  1. Does your programme accept international patients, and how is the lung allocation score or waiting time managed?
  2. Do you use ex-vivo lung perfusion or accept extended-criteria donor lungs?
  3. What are your one-year survival results and rates of chronic lung allograft dysfunction?
  4. How will rejection and infection be monitored, and by whom at home?
  5. Would you consider a single lung transplant for me instead?
  6. What is the plan if I develop primary graft dysfunction in the first days?

Candidacy

Are you a good candidate?

Yes, if

  • End-stage lung disease such as cystic fibrosis, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis or pulmonary hypertension, with limited life expectancy.
  • Declining despite maximal medical treatment, oxygen and rehabilitation.
  • Suppurative lung disease such as cystic fibrosis or bronchiectasis, where both lungs must be replaced.
  • Motivated and able to follow a demanding lifelong medication and monitoring plan.

Not yet, if

  • Active cancer, active infection outside the lungs, or major heart, liver or kidney disease.
  • Current smoking, substance use or poor adherence to treatment.
  • Severe frailty or malnutrition that surgery and recovery could not tolerate.
  • Certain drug-resistant infections, depending on the centre's policy.
Jinsi ukurasa huu ulivyoandaliwa

Mbinu na viwango vya uhariri

Viwango vya gharama kwenye ukurasa huu vinatokana na bei za vifurushi ambazo hospitali zilizoorodheshwa zinatoa kwa double lung transplant. Kiwango cha kila nchi ni kutoka bei ya chini hadi ya juu iliyoorodheshwa.

  1. Taarifa za hospitali. Maelezo ya hospitali yanakusanywa kutoka vyanzo vya umma na tovuti za hospitali. Uidhinishaji (JCI, NABH na mengine) huonyeshwa pale tulipo na rekodi. Daima omba hospitali cheti chake cha sasa.
  2. Sifa za madaktari. Sifa, utaalamu na wasifu hutoka wasifu wa daktari hospitalini. Leseni hukaguliwa kwenye rejista ya baraza la kitaifa la madaktari tu pale wasifu unapoonyesha alama ya "Leseni imehakikiwa" yenye tarehe.
  3. Bei. Viwango vya bei ni vya kukadiria, vimekusanywa kutoka orodha za bei na vifurushi vya hospitali na huonyeshwa na tarehe ya mwisho ya kusasishwa. Unacholipa ni kile kilichoandikwa kwenye nukuu ya hospitali.
  4. Maandishi ya kitabibu. Imeandikwa na timu ya wahariri ya Medcasts kutoka vyanzo vya kliniki vilivyochapishwa. Isipokuwa ukurasa umetaja mhakiki kwa jina, haujakaguliwa na daktari.
  5. Uhuru. Hospitali haziwezi kulipa ili kubadilisha nafasi yao kwenye kurasa zetu.
