How much does a brain tumor surgery cost at Apollo Hospital Chennai with Ayushman Card?

Hello,

Yes, brain tumour treatment is covered under Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY and Apollo Hospitals Chennai is also listed as a PM-JAY/Ayushman-empanelled hospital.

How much will you have to pay?

If the brain tumour operation is approved under an applicable Ayushman package, the covered treatment is generally cashless, so you normally should not have to pay the package cost yourself. PM-JAY packages are bundled and cover the costs included in that package.

So, for an approved and covered case, the out-of-pocket cost for the covered package can be ₹0.

Documents to carry

• Ayushman Card/e-card

• Aadhaar or valid government ID

• MRI/CT brain reports and CDs

• Doctor's prescription/referral

• Blood test reports

• Previous medical records and discharge summaries

• Biopsy/pathology report, if already done

• Current medicines/prescriptions

Please do not delay treatment if the patient has severe headache, repeated vomiting, seizures, loss of consciousness, new weakness, difficulty speaking, or rapidly worsening symptoms. Go to the emergency department immediately.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
Warm regards,
