Hi Sandeep,

The medications in pill form do not cost too much. Enbrel is a very expensive drug. Here in the USA without medical insurance it would cost over $7000.00. Is India's healthcare system universal?

Well India is a third world country. USA is not. I am glad it is a lower cost for you. I hope it helps you and you are getting what you need.

Biologics are very expensive. Consultation fees are not too bad either. Here your copay fees depend on medical coverage. For me, with employer medical insurance, the office fee is $10.00.

Rheumatologist consultant fees in India is $12 - $15

In India rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes not covered in insurance. We not afforded biological.., pill treatment is very cheaper and popular in India,, less than 1% ra patient on biological in India.
