FAQ
What factors affect stomach cancer operation cost
The gastrectomy cost is affected by:
- Surgeon’s experience. If a surgical oncologist has conducted many operations, made lots of achievements and numerous awards, a doctor can ask for a higher fee.
- Type of the method. According to a patient’s case, a doctor may provide subtotal (partial) or total gastrectomy to remove a tumor. Specialists use minimally invasive (laparoscopic, robotic) and open methods of gastrectomy.
- Country's price policy. The price of stomach cancer surgery depends on a country’s population income. For instance, surgery in Turkey is cheaper than in Germany, but the quality remains at the same high level.
- Hospital charges. Most German clinics require a prepayment for treatment. And finally, if treatment occurs cheaper, a clinic can give the rest of the money back to a patient.
*If a patient needs therapies, the cost of stomach cancer treatment can be higher. For example, advanced disease is always hard to cure and requires more expensive treatment methods.
