Profound hearing loss can deeply affect communication, education, and social life. For many, a cochlear implant offers a life-changing way to regain the ability to hear and connect with the world. At Satkriti Hospital, known as the best ENT hospital in Varanasi and Purvanchal, we recognize both the remarkable benefits of cochlear implant surgery and the financial challenges it may bring. Our goal is to make this advanced treatment accessible, providing expert care along with clear information on costs and government support.
A cochlear implant is a sophisticated device that helps those with severe or profound hearing loss. Unlike hearing aids, which amplify sound, cochlear implants bypass damaged ear parts and directly stimulate the auditory nerve. The surgery places a small internal device under the skin behind the ear; an external processor is worn outside. This procedure can open up a world of sound for patients of all ages.
Satkriti Hospital leads in advanced ENT care, equipped with the latest technology and skilled ENT specialists. We offer thorough evaluation, surgery, and post-operative rehabilitation, supporting patients every step of the way on their hearing journey.
The cost of cochlear implant surgery includes the procedure, the implant device, assessments before and after surgery, therapy, and follow-up care. Although it’s a significant investment, the benefits in quality of life, communication, and opportunity are priceless.
Guided by our motto, “Noble Work,” we strive to provide excellent outcomes at affordable costs. We believe no one should miss out on this transformative treatment due to financial hurdles. That’s why we help patients explore funding options, including government aid.
One major support program is the **ADIP-CI scheme** (Assistance to Disabled Persons for Purchase/Fitting of Aids and Appliances), launched by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment. It helps children from financially disadvantaged backgrounds with severe hearing loss to receive cochlear implants.
As an authorized center for ADIP, Satkriti Hospital offers full support to eligible families, assisting with paperwork, evaluations, and coordination to make the process smooth. We’re committed to helping every child access the gift of hearing, regardless of their family’s financial situation.
Beyond ADIP, we offer other financial pathways:
- Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY): Satkriti Hospital is among the first in Varanasi to provide services under this national health scheme, making treatment affordable for many vulnerable families. Eligible patients can benefit from cochlear implant-related care here.
- NABH-Accredited Cashless Services: As a NABH-accredited hospital, we meet top quality and safety standards. This allows us to work with insurance providers to offer cashless treatment options, easing the financial process. Our team will help you navigate your insurance for cochlear implant surgery and related care.
