When patients and families come for a consultation at Nagpal Robotics in Bathinda, one of the most important conversations is about cost. Knee replacement is a significant investment — and families in Punjab deserve to know exactly what they're paying for, with no surprises. Dr. Parampreet Singh Nagpal is committed to complete cost transparency, and this article breaks down every component of the cost so you can plan with confidence.
You may have seen knee replacement surgery advertised anywhere from ₹80,000 to ₹6 lakh in different places. This huge variation exists because hospitals quote costs very differently — some quote a "surgery fee" only, others quote all-inclusive packages, and some quote implant cost separately. Understanding what's actually included in a quote is essential to comparing fairly.
| Cost Component | What It Covers | Approximate Range |
|---|---|---|
| Knee Implant | The metal and plastic prosthetic knee joint (Indian/imported brands available) | ₹70,000 – ₹1,80,000 |
| Surgeon Fee | Dr. Nagpal's surgical fees including pre and post-op consultations | ₹40,000 – ₹70,000 |
| Anaesthesia Fee | Anaesthetist fee for spinal or general anaesthesia | ₹15,000 – ₹25,000 |
| Operation Theatre Charges | OT usage, robotic system usage, surgical instruments, consumables | ₹40,000 – ₹80,000 |
| Hospital Room (3–5 days) | General ward / Semi-private / Private room accommodation | ₹15,000 – ₹40,000 |
| Nursing Care | Post-operative nursing, wound dressing, vitals monitoring | Included in room charges |
| Pre-operative Tests | Blood tests, ECG, X-rays, CT scan (for robotic planning) | ₹5,000 – ₹12,000 |
| Post-operative Medications | Blood thinners, pain relief, antibiotics (typically 4–6 weeks supply) | ₹8,000 – ₡15,000 |
| Physiotherapy (In-hospital) | Physiotherapy sessions during hospital stay | Included at Nagpal Robotics |
| Blood Transfusion | If needed (robotic surgery significantly reduces this need) | ₹0 – ₹10,000 |
| TOTAL (Single Knee) | Robotic-assisted total knee replacement | ₹2.5 – ₹4.5 Lakh |
| TOTAL (Both Knees) | Bilateral simultaneous robotic knee replacement | ₹4.5 – ₹8 Lakh |
The knee implant accounts for the largest portion of surgery cost. At Nagpal Robotics, implants from internationally certified manufacturers are used. Options include:
Dr. Nagpal recommends the implant based on your age, weight, activity level, and anatomy — not on what's most expensive. He discusses implant options transparently with every patient before confirming the plan.
It's important to know that knee implants in India are price-regulated by the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA). The government has capped the prices of knee implants to ensure they remain accessible. At Nagpal Robotics, we strictly comply with these price caps — patients never pay above-regulated prices for implants.
Most health insurance policies in India cover knee replacement surgery. Nagpal Robotics has cashless tie-ups with many major insurers including:
For cashless admission, contact the Nagpal Robotics billing team before your admission date. Our team handles all insurance paperwork, pre-authorisation, and claim processing — so you can focus entirely on your recovery.
Patients who are beneficiaries of the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme can receive knee replacement surgery at empanelled hospitals. Check with Nagpal Robotics whether your specific surgery is covered under PMJAY at our centre.
Nagpal Robotics understands that even with insurance, out-of-pocket expenses can be a challenge for families. We work with patients to find workable financial arrangements. Please discuss your financial situation openly with our team — we want the best possible care to be accessible to every patient who needs it.
At Nagpal Robotics, all of these questions are answered clearly in your pre-admission counselling. There are no hidden charges, and our billing team is always available for clarification.
Q: Why is robotic knee replacement more expensive than conventional surgery?
A: Robotic systems require significant capital investment (₹3–5 crore for each robotic system), maintenance contracts, specialised staff training, and additional pre-operative CT planning. This cost is reflected in the surgery fee. However, the superior outcomes and longer implant life make robotic surgery more cost-effective over a 20-year horizon.
Q: Can I get a written cost estimate before surgery?
A: Absolutely. Nagpal Robotics provides every patient with a written all-inclusive cost estimate before admission confirmation. This is our commitment to transparency.
Q: If I'm admitted but need a longer hospital stay, will I be charged more?
A: If a prolonged stay is medically necessary, additional room and nursing charges apply. This is communicated clearly upfront. Unexpected prolonged stays due to complications are rare at Nagpal Robotics but handled with complete transparency.
