The price to the recipient of a liver transplant in India is USD$20k to $35k.
There's no good reason a liver transplant should cost 300k, so yours is a false comparison.

- inglor_cz 1y agoIn Czechia, with its public insurance system, the cost of a liver transplant is about 70 000 USD. But our medical professionals make peanuts compared to the US, and they don't need medical malpractice insurance. I suspect that the lowest realistic cost in the US could be about 150k. When compared to conservative treatments, transplants are expensive everywhere. A very invasive treatment with a small army of specialists involved.
