The cost of hip arthroscopy in South Korea typically ranges from $8,000 to $9,600. Prices can vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, whether you need labral repair or debridement, and the complexity of your hip problem. In the United States, the average cost is $22,500 (per AAOS). This means hip arthroscopy in South Korea is about 61% less than in the U.S.
Korean hospitals usually include pre-op tests, general or spinal anesthesia, the arthroscopic procedure, use of specialized instruments, and follow-up visits. Hospital stays (often 1–2 nights), medications, and initial physical therapy are commonly part of the package. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with extra charges for anesthesia, hospital stay, and rehab. Always confirm exactly what’s included at each clinic.
