Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a lifesaver, but in many western and Middle Eastern nations, it represents a catastrophic financial burden. In the United States, a cardiac bypass surgery can average $120,000. In the United Kingdom, private treatment costs around $40,000, and even in private hospitals in the UAE, the cost sits near $28,000. In comparison, accredited super-speciality hospitals in Calicut, Kerala provide the exact same surgical procedure — using US FDA-approved consumables, modular cardiovascular theatres, and highly experienced surgeons — for approximately $6,000. This includes the medical coordination fees, hospital room stay, diagnostic workups, and medical officer charges.
