Care cost compare

What a procedure costs self-pay, the US versus abroad. Ranges, sources, and dates, never a guaranteed price.

United States

$1,200

range $400–$3,500

Thailand

$350

range $150–$760

A mri scan in Thailand runs about $850 less than in United States, roughly 29% of the United States price.

Self-pay cash ranges, medical cost only, no flights or lodging. Planned care like this is typically self-pay (nomad insurance excludes it as medical tourism); an emergency version would usually be covered by SafetyWing or Genki minus your deductible. Informational only, not medical or insurance advice, and never a price or coverage guarantee. Get a written quote and verify accreditation before you book.
