Key Factors to Know
What Affects the Cost?
Understanding what goes into the price helps you plan better.
- Hospital Type & Location: Premium JCI-accredited private hospitals charge more but offer international-standard care, advanced hematology units, and specialized cancer treatment facilities.
- Doctor’s Expertise: Treating Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) requires highly skilled hematologists experienced in complex chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and transplant protocols. Expertise in risk stratification and deciding the right timing for bone marrow transplant significantly influences outcomes and cost.
- Type of Therapy: The overall cost depends on the treatment approach—intensive chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or bone marrow transplant (BMT). If a transplant is required, it substantially increases the total treatment cost.
- Pre & Post-operative Care: Pre-treatment care includes a full medical workup, organ function tests, HLA matching, conditioning therapy, and infection prevention. Post-treatment care involves strict infection control, use of immunosuppressants, and ongoing medication and monitoring as advised.
- Travel & Accommodation: Additional expenses include flight costs, local accommodation during recovery, medical visa fees, and costs for attendants or caregivers.
What Affects the Success Rate?
Key factors that influence outcomes for Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
- Doctor’s Experience: Accurate risk assessment and treatment planning—choosing the most suitable option such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or transplant—along with strong complication management and precision care, plays a key role in treatment success.
- Hospital Accreditation: Opting for JCI or NABH-accredited hospitals ensures high standards of care, safety protocols, and access to advanced hematology facilities.
- Key Factors Affecting Success Rate: Early detection and lower disease burden improve outcomes. Response to initial chemotherapy, patient age and fitness, eligibility for bone marrow transplant (BMT) and targeted therapies, and strong supportive care during low immunity phases significantly influence survival.
- Rehabilitation: Includes immune recovery and infection prevention, physical rehabilitation, nutrition support, strict medication adherence, and continuous monitoring.
- Pre-AML Planning: Involves confirming the diagnosis through bone marrow tests, detailed risk profiling, and selecting the appropriate treatment approach—induction chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or stem cell transplant—based on patient fitness and disease risk.

My uncle from Ethiopia was diagnosed with Leukemia. He needed urgent treatment overseas as there were no good medical facilities in his home town...After some searching online I reached out to a number of hospitals and companies and the people from INDHEAL responded to me quickly and provided me with all the information I needed to pick a hospital for my uncle in India. After all their help and consideration of location, price and facilities. We chose HCG hospital in Bangalore and INDHEAL connected us with the doctors, helped us with our visas, accommodation and they also assisted us in negotiating prices for his treatment. I couldn’t have gotten my uncle the treatment he needed without the INDHEAL teams help. I’d like to thank the team, particularly Raj (insert full name) for assisting my family and I in making informed decisions for my uncle. He is doing much better now and is completing his follow up treatment back in Ethiopia
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, there are good treatments for AML which often provide complete cure. You need to start the treatment at the earliest. Survival is very difficult without treatment and is normally a matter of days or weeks
Chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplant is the most effective treatment for Acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In some cases, radiation therapy is also useful
For most types of AML, 2 out of 3 people will go into remission after chemotherapy. Your chances are much higher if you are of age, have low white blood count and have no prior history of any cancer treatment
