The cost of ankle fracture surgery in Singapore varies based on several factors. If you're considering this procedure, it's important to understand what influences your medical bill. Here are the key factors.
1. Type of Surgery Required
- Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) – Common for severe fractures, involving plates, screws, or rods.
- Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) – Less invasive, usually for less complex fractures.
- External Fixation – Used for unstable fractures, requiring an external frame to stabilize bones.
2. Hospital or Clinic Charges
- Public Hospitals (Subsidized vs. Private Ward) – Subsidized patients pay less, while private ward charges are higher.
- Private Hospitals – Generally more expensive, offering shorter wait times and premium care.
3. Surgeon’s Fees - Experienced orthopedic specialists charge higher fees. Complex cases requiring specialized skills may also raise costs.
4. Anesthesia and Operating Room Costs
- General anesthesia costs more than local anesthesia due to additional monitoring and longer recovery times.
- Longer surgery durations increase overall operating room expenses.
