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

Usually extra

  • Follow-up teleconsults after the first 30 days

04 · FAQ

Questions that come up a lot

Is eswl / rirs for kidney stones 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?

1 inpatient days is typical, plus ~7 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 eswl / rirs for kidney stones 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).

  • 1-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 7 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

  • A treatment is promised as always one session regardless of stone size and type.
  • No imaging or urine test before treatment.
  • No explanation about stents, their discomfort or timing of removal.
  • No stone analysis or prevention plan.

Questions

What to ask before signing the quote

  1. Is ESWL or RIRS better for my stone, and why?
  2. How many sessions might I need, and what is the chance of leftover fragments?
  3. Will a stent be used, how long will it stay, and how is it removed?
  4. What are the risks, such as infection, bleeding or a blocked ureter?
  5. How will you test the stone type, and what can I do to stop new stones?
  6. Who can arrange a follow-up scan and stent removal at home?

Candidacy

Are you a good candidate?

Yes, if

  • Kidney stones of small to moderate size that cause pain, blockage, infection or are growing.
  • A patient who wants to avoid a puncture through the back and accepts the chance of more than one session.
  • Stones suited to ESWL, or those in the kidney better treated by flexible scope (RIRS).
  • Normal clotting and no active infection.

Not yet, if

  • Active urinary infection must be treated before either procedure.
  • Pregnancy rules out ESWL and needs specialist advice for any stone treatment.
  • Uncorrected bleeding disorders or blood thinners need a plan from your doctor.
  • Very large or complex stones may need percutaneous surgery (PCNL) instead.
