Hey,

A spinal fusion/lumbar fusion surgery is designed to stop the motion at a painful vertebral segment, which in turn should decrease pain generated from the joint. There are many approaches to lumbar spinal fusion surgery. Spinal fusion is major surgery, usually lasting several hours. Spinal fusion is generally a safe procedure. But as with any surgery, spinal fusion carries the potential risk of complications. Potential complications include Infection.

In USA surgeons charge 120000 dollars or more for a surgery because of various aspects like:

• The U.S. spends about 8% of its healthcare dollar on administrative costs, compared to 1% to 3% in the 10 other countries.
• Americans shell out almost four times as much for pharmaceutical drugs as citizens of other industrialized countries pay.
• Doctors and Nurses are paid more, The average U.S. family doctor earns $218,173 a year, and specialists make $316,000.
• Hospital care accounts for 33% of the nation’s healthcare costs. Between 2007 and 2014, prices for hospital care rose much faster than physician prices.
• Because of the complexity of the system and the lack of any set prices for medical services, providers are free to charge whatever the market will bear.

But in India the charges are less and depend upon the complexity of the procedure between Rs.189000 to Rs.800000.

Thank You
