How much does kidney replacement surgery cost?

The cost of kidney replacement surgery is related to different regional hospitals and whether the kidney source comes from relatives or is provided by the hospital, the cost varies greatly. If the kidney is donated by relatives and it belongs to the less developed area, the cost of kidney replacement may be relatively cheaper. If it comes from a developed area and the kidney source is provided by the hospital, the operation cost is more expensive at this time, about 300,000-500,000. However, as one of the national subsidies for major diseases, kidney transplantation can be partially reimbursed, so patients do not need to pay the full amount of these costs. In addition to the surgery cost, the cost of kidney replacement also includes the pre-operative mating test and post-operative anti-rejection drugs, which may add up to a relatively high cost.
