The cost of chemotherapy for a brain tumor in Spain typically ranges from $8,000 to $16,000. Prices depend on the chemotherapy protocol, number of cycles, medication brands, and whether treatment is inpatient or outpatient. The clinic’s location and oncologist’s experience also impact costs. In the United States, the average cost is $30,000 (according to the American Cancer Society). Chemotherapy for a brain tumor in Spain is about 60% less than in the U.S.
Spanish hospitals usually include oncologist consultations, chemotherapy drugs, infusion sessions, routine bloodwork, and basic supportive medications in the price. In the U.S., drug costs, infusion fees, and lab tests are often billed separately, and supportive care can add extra charges. Always confirm exactly what each clinic’s quote covers before starting treatment.
