in usa , a assistant surgeon charged 120000 dollars for a surgery or approximatiely 90 lakh rupees for a lumbar fusion. the case was not even that huge. why did it cost so much

Dev 18th Jan, 2022

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

can a neurosurgeon earn 60000 dollars for a surgery

Sohamsengupta8 16th Jan, 2022

Hello Student,

After becoming neurosurgeon at first you have to work as the part of internship from about 6 months. Only after that you will get registration and then you can become a a perfect neurosurgeon. Obviously then you can go to abroad and start your career there if you have passed from a reputed college in India you can do that easily otherwise maybe there are some hustles. Obviously after practicing some year when you will be expert maybe you can become a top surgeon of that time.  But after that also earning 60000 dollars for a single surgery is quite impossible and can be achieved after lots of practices as a General neurosurgeon. Hope you will understand you can click on the link below to know more about neurologists

does a surgeon get 100000 dollars per surgery in usa

Sohamsengupta8 16th Jan, 2022

Hello Student

Not at all, it is an absurd views about the surgeons in USA. 90 to $300 per hour. No expert  he or she is a surgeon or  practicing medicine 100000 dollar per surgery. Yeah she can earn only 90 to $300/hr. If the doctor works at least 8 hours a day kannalli 2400 dollar per day and in the monthly basis $72,000 per month. So it is impossible thinking that is a doctor or surgeon earn 100000 dollar per surgery or per day.

This will help.

can a neurosurgeon in usa earn 12 million dollars per year by private practice

Swapnali Datkhile 14th Jan, 2022

Depends on which MARKET you live in, what PHYSICIAN GROUP you join and where you get boarded. You’re obviously not going to make as much in rural Kansas as in NYC, as your market is significantly less. A recently boarded neurosurgeon in an “NFL City” market can make about $500k to $1 million per year. If you come from a world-renowned residency program such as Johns Hopkins, UC-SF, Mayo Clinic, NYU and Columbia, and get yourself into a teaching hospital, you can maintain your practice and almost double your income though consulting, research and textbook writing/editing. A boarded neurosurgeon finishing up a 30 year career out of Memorial Sloan Kettering and he’s pulling in $2 million individually PLUS his profit share from the group he helped establish decades ago.

The average Neurologist salary in the United States is $264,500 as of October 29, 2021, but the range typically falls between $231,200 and $310,500. Salary ranges can vary widely depending on many important factors, including education, certifications, additional skills, the number of years you have spent in your profession. With more online, real-time compensation data than any other website, Salary helps you determine your exact pay target.

can a small brain surgery be done in 1 2 hours, give an example of such a surgery

AVINASH KUMAR 13th Jan, 2022

Dear aspirant hope you are doing well..

It could take up to 3-5 hours if you are having a regular craniotomy. If you have an awake craniotomy, the surgery could take 5-7 hours. This includes pre op, peri op and post op. The number one post-op concern for patients undergoing brain surgery is neurologic function.

On average, brain surgery long-term survival rate can be between 50-70% except in cases of malignant tumors where chances are lowered. In cases of brain operation performed for non-tumor related brain damage, the chances of survival are significantly enhanced.

Hope it's helpful
