Dental might or might not make sense. Depends on how many surgeries you need usually. Implants here in the us costs ~5-6k. Implants where i came from is around 700$, but thing with implants is it needs a lot of time during recovery. Like 3 months after bonegraft etc. You can also det double insurance for cheap-ish and get it covered like that in the us for about 1/6th the price.
For most non emergency surgeries (some heart surgeries are in that category, you can plan in advance), europe does make sense, especially insurance is not good.
At some point i thought that could be oretty good way to balance out cost here.
- yakshaving_jgt 8y agoI was advised to have a mole removed. The private clinic in London wanted £700 for the removal, and the initial consultation was £250. I flew to Poland instead, and had it removed at another private clinic for £80. All the staff in the top clinic in London are Polish anyway. Paying crazy amounts of money for medical procedures is just dumb. I cannot understand why Americans would pay tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars for surgery when they could fly to Europe, live the highlife, and also buy a house with the change.
- surfmike 8y agoBecause their insurance pays.
- raverbashing 8y agoYeah, but the copay sounds it could be more expensive than doing it entirely abroad
