ANGIOPLASTY AND STENT COST IN INDIA
Angioplasty and stent cost in India
Angioplasty opens narrowed heart arteries with a balloon and usually a stent, through a small tube in the wrist or groin. We share your angiogram with interventional cardiologists in Delhi NCR and get you a written estimate.
Medical recommendations come from your qualified treating clinicians.
What is angioplasty?
In coronary angioplasty (PCI), a cardiologist passes a thin catheter to the narrowed artery, widens it with a balloon and usually places a drug-eluting stent to keep it open. Most patients are awake, with local anaesthetic, and go home within one to three days.
Why angioplasty costs differ
The main factors are:
- How many arteries and stents are treated
- The type of stent
- Imaging inside the artery (IVUS or OCT) and devices for hard calcium
- Whether a new angiogram is needed in India
- Days in hospital
What an angioplasty estimate usually covers
India’s National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority caps the price of coronary stents, which helps keep costs predictable. Ask whether the estimate includes the angiogram, the procedure, stents, hospital stay and medicines, and how the cost changes if more stents are needed.
How long to plan for in India
About five to seven days in India in total, including tests and a check-up before you fly. You will need blood-thinning medicines for months afterwards.
Choosing an interventional cardiologist
Ask whether angioplasty or bypass surgery is better for your pattern of disease. A heart team that offers both gives the most balanced advice.
