Cancer treatment is generally covered by insurance if the patient has one. The overall cost will depend on the stage, type, and location of cancer.
If it requires only a small surgery, treatment may be lesser than Rs. 1 lakh. However, it is important to note that treatment may often involve other modes such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, etc.
Since several cycles of chemotherapy may be required to treat cancer effectively, the cost may increase. In the case of other modalities like radiation therapy, hormonal therapy, etc., the cost changes according to the medication or type of radiation. High-end radiation technologies like IMRT or gamma knife tend to cost more than conventional radiation packages.
Always ask the doctor or the billing department for an approximate cost of the treatment and ensure the provision of funds.
