The cost of open heart surgery in Spain typically ranges from $30,000 to $50,000. Pricing can vary depending on the hospital, the cardiac surgeon’s experience, the complexity of the procedure (such as bypass, valve repair, or replacement), and the type of prosthetic materials used. In the United States, the average cost is $160,000 (according to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons). This means open heart surgery in Spain is about 75% less than in the U.S.
Spanish packages usually cover the initial consultation, pre-op blood tests, post-op medications, follow-up visits, personalized treatment plans, English-speaking staff, meals during clinic stays, post-op care instructions, and 24/7 patient support. In the U.S., the quoted price often includes only the surgeon and hospital fees, with extra charges for anesthesia, medications, and follow-up care. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each clinic.
