Kidney Stone Treatment Cost in Gondia
What to Expect — Honest Numbers
Most patients ask the same question before anything else: how much will this cost? Here is a straightforward breakdown from Dr. Amit Ilamkar at Urocare Hospital — no hidden fees, no vague estimates.
Why Does Cost Vary So Much?
Kidney stone treatment cost depends on three things: the size and position of the stone, which procedure is needed, and the city you get it done in. A 6mm stone in the ureter needs a very different approach than a 25mm staghorn stone in the kidney — and the cost reflects that difference.
Procedure-by-Procedure Cost Guide
| Procedure | Best For | Est. Cost at Urocare | Nagpur Equivalent |
|---|---|---|---|
| URS (ureteroscopy) | Ureteric stones up to 15mm | ₹25,000 – ₹45,000 | ₹45,000 – ₹80,000 |
| RIRS (laser, flexible scope) | Kidney stones up to 20mm | ₹45,000 – ₹75,000 | ₹80,000 – ₹1,40,000 |
| Mini-PCNL | Large stones 20–35mm | ₹60,000 – ₹90,000 | ₹1,00,000 – ₹1,80,000 |
| Standard PCNL | Staghorn / complex stones | ₹75,000 – ₹1,20,000 | ₹1,20,000 – ₹2,20,000 |
| SWL (shockwave lithotripsy) | Small stones, suitable anatomy | ₹15,000 – ₹25,000 | ₹25,000 – ₹50,000 |
* Estimates include surgeon fee, OT, anaesthesia, 1-night stay if needed, and basic consumables. Implants and stents billed separately at cost.
What Is Included in the Cost?
Does Insurance Cover Kidney Stone Surgery?
Yes. RIRS, PCNL, URS, and Mini-PCNL are all covered under most health insurance plans, including Ayushman Bharat (PMJAY), corporate group policies, and individual health policies. Urocare Hospital assists with pre-authorisation paperwork and claim documentation.
Government scheme patients (Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Jan Arogya Yojana / PMJAY) can get most procedures at zero out-of-pocket cost. Bring your card and Aadhar — our staff will handle the rest.
