How Much Does Vagus nerve stimulation Cost in Spain?

The cost of vagus nerve stimulation in Spain typically ranges from $15,000 to $25,000. Pricing can vary depending on the type of device (rechargeable or non-rechargeable), the hospital, and the surgeon’s experience. In the United States, the average cost is $47,500 (per AANS). Vagus nerve stimulation in Spain is generally about 58% less than in the U.S.

Spanish hospitals usually include the pre-op consultation, device and implantation, anesthesia, hospital stay, and the first follow-up in the price. In the U.S., device costs, surgeon fees, anesthesia, and hospital charges are often billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each clinic before scheduling.
