Most things,particularly medicines and services are expensive in USA.I found a tablet of ibuprofen costs 20 times more than India.Wisdom tooth extraction 1300 usd (for myself)and appendectomy 30000 usd(for my son).I would say medical treatment is a lot cheaper in India.

That goes for other medications, as well, but it depends on what you’re needing for your health issues, ramana42 . I take anticonvulsants and without the insurance, it’s over $1,000. With insurance, it can be cheaper, but you have to see what insurance you have for it to be covered.
