The surgical treatment for Parkinson's disease known as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) requires specific tests to ensure it is safe to proceed. Brain imaging investigations, ultrasonography, MRI, and PET scans are among the diagnostics available. Along with this specific blood and urine tests are done to detect any abnormalities and poisonous substances. Although the pre-surgery tests are included in the package, the blood tests are either included or excluded.
During the stay in the hospital, all the medical expenses are included in the package. However, the medicines required in the post-treatment period after the patient is discharged are usually not included in the package.
Usually, the patient is required to stay in the hospital for 4-5 days after the surgery. The doctor then takes follow-up with the patient and recommends home care practices. The hospital stay, as well as the services, are included in the package. However, overstaying beyond the package days in the hospital is chargeable.
