Laparoscopic procedures are affordable in India whereas the same procedures are expensive in the USA and other western countries. For instance, a heart valve replacement surgery which costs $8,000 in India costs $10,000 in Thailand, $12,500 in Singapore, $90,000 in Britain and $200,000 in India. Laparoscopic surgeries in India, on the whole, would surely save 75% to 90% of the healthcare costs compared to the same procedure if performed in the other western countries.
