The cost of anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) in Thailand typically ranges from $12,500 / ฿425,000 to $19,500 / ฿663,000. Pricing varies depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, the number of spinal levels treated, and the type of implants or bone grafts used. In the United States, the average cost is $70,000 / ฿2,380,000 (per NASS). This means ACDF in Thailand can be about 77% less than in the U.S.
Packages in Thailand usually include pre-op exams, general anesthesia, surgical fees, titanium or PEEK cages and plates, 2–5 days of hospital stay, medications, and follow-up visits. In the U.S., the base price often covers only the surgeon and hospital fee, with anesthesia, implants, and aftercare billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each Thai clinic.
