Liver Cancer, how much does typically surgery costs in CANADA estimated range is fine? will health Canada cover me 100% if I have no insurance at all or how much they will cover? what are my long term costs in medications?please respond back as specific as possible to questions.
Thanks for the query.
Liver cancer is a very broad term. A number of procedures and surgical methods are done during the course of such illness.
If you are speaking about Liver Transplant, the estimated average cost of a liver transplant in Ontario, including follow-up costs, is $200, 000, but the range varies widely because of factors such as disease severity, infection and complications. The average length of hospital stay is 40 days including a week of Intensive care. I have taken these figures from Canadian Medical Association Journal.
I am not aware of the insurance procedures and details of it. You have to find out with the insurance team, call them up. However it takes a very long time to get a transplant through Health Canada.
Hope this partly answers your query.
