Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much does bypass surgery (CABG) cost in India?

A: Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in India costs approximately $5,000–$8,000 at top hospitals such as Medanta, Fortis, and Apollo, compared to $25,000 or more in Kazakhstan. The procedure, surgical team quality, and post-operative care are equivalent.

Q: Can patients from Kazakhstan get angioplasty in India without a long wait?

A: Yes. Unlike Kazakhstan where cardiac procedures may require weeks of waiting, Indian hospitals schedule angioplasty within 24–48 hours of admission. MediKaya Healthcare coordinates the entire appointment process before the patient boards the flight.

Q: Is Indian cardiology technology comparable to Western countries?

A: India’s top cardiology hospitals are JCI-accredited and use the same cardiac stents, bypass grafts, and pacemakers as hospitals in Germany and the USA. Many senior cardiologists are internationally trained — in the UK, USA, or Germany.

Q: What documents do I need to come for heart treatment in India?

A: Bring recent ECG reports, echocardiography, angiography films (if available), blood reports, current medication list, and passport. MediKaya Healthcare will arrange the medical visa invitation letter from the hospital.

Q: How long will I need to stay in India after bypass surgery?

A: Most bypass surgery patients stay 10–14 days total — approximately 5–7 days in hospital and 5–7 days in recovery before being medically cleared to fly. Angioplasty patients are often ready to return within 4–5 days.
