Insurance & EMI

Unlike bariatric surgery, intragastric balloon therapy is generally treated as a weight-management programme rather than a covered surgical treatment, so most Indian health policies exclude it. Axten's cashless desk reviews your policy honestly, and 0% EMI keeps the programme affordable if coverage is declined.

0% EMI is available on the complete programme - a mid-range package of about Rs 2,75,000 works out to roughly Rs 23,000 per month over 12 interest-free months.

Our insurance desk files cashless pre-authorisation with all major insurers and TPAs on your behalf --- you focus on recovery, we handle the paperwork.

Spatz Intragastric Balloon cost --- FAQs

How much does the Spatz Intragastric Balloon cost in India?

At Axten Hospitals, the complete Spatz balloon programme costs Rs 2,00,000 - Rs 3,50,000 all-inclusive. This single written price covers the imported Spatz3 balloon, endoscopic placement with sedation, dietitian coaching, scheduled follow-ups, any adjustment procedure and final removal - with zero surprise billing. Call 8156-92-92-92 for the exact price in your city.

Why does the balloon programme cost more than some surgeries?

The Spatz3 is an imported, adjustable medical device that stays in your body for up to 12 months, and the price funds a full year of care - two endoscopic procedures (placement and removal), sedation for each, monthly dietitian coaching and any volume adjustment. You are paying for a supervised programme, not a single procedure.

Is the Spatz balloon covered by health insurance in India?

Usually not. While IRDAI norms require insurers to cover bariatric surgery for eligible patients, intragastric balloon therapy is generally classified as non-surgical weight management and excluded from standard policies. Axten's insurance desk checks your specific policy honestly before you commit, and our 0% EMI plans cover the full programme if the answer is no.

Are the balloon removal and adjustment procedures charged separately?

No. Axten's quote is for the whole journey: placement, sedation, dietitian sessions, scheduled reviews, one clinically needed volume adjustment and the removal endoscopy at the end of therapy are all inside the single written price. Programmes that quote placement alone can add lakhs later - our zero-surprise-billing promise exists precisely to prevent that.

Is the balloon cheaper than bariatric surgery overall?

The upfront ranges overlap: the balloon programme costs Rs 2,00,000 - Rs 3,50,000 versus Rs 2,80,000 - Rs 5,50,000 for bariatric surgery. However, surgery is often insurance-covered while the balloon rarely is, which can reverse the out-of-pocket picture. The right choice depends on your BMI, health conditions and goals - Axten's team helps you compare both honestly.

What payment options does Axten offer for the balloon programme?

You can pay the all-inclusive package upfront by card, UPI or bank transfer, or choose 0% EMI - a mid-range Rs 2,75,000 programme becomes roughly Rs 23,000 per month over 12 months, with no interest and no hidden charges. The instalment total always equals the written quote, matching the length of your balloon therapy itself.
