Bone Marrow Transplants for Blood Cancer
– Why India Leads

For many families in Bangladesh, the experience of a loved one suffering from blood cancer can be very overwhelming. Finding the right treatment at the right cost can be difficult. However, over the past 10 years, India has become the global leader in the treatment of blood cancers via bone marrow transplant (BMT). India offers quality medical care, lower costs, and an experience that is comforting to international patients, especially from Bangladesh. If you or a loved one is considering a bone marrow transplant, below is an explanation of why India, with the guidance and expertise of MedTriPlanne, is your best option.

Why India is the Best Place to Consider for Bone Marrow Transplant

World Class Medical Expertise

India's top hospitals have experienced doctors that have trained and worked at top institutions across the world. These transplant specialists are experts in bone marrow transplant procedures and achieve high success rates, offer better care than most other countries and can provide more advanced care in rare and complex cases.

State-of-the-Art Hospitals

Hospitals in India have the latest medical technology, advanced diagnostic labs and HEPA filtered transplant wards and comfortable operation theatres. The best transplant hospitals in India such as Max Hospitals and Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute are recognised leaders in hematology and transplant care.

Affordable Treatment Costs

Affordability is one of the primary reasons why Bangladeshi patients visit India and undergo BMT. The most BMT cost in India will be much less than what you would pay in any Western country, while still being functionally the same quality. This not only means people can afford treatment, but also allows thousands of families to obtain life-saving treatment when anywhere else would be completely out of reach.

Short waiting time for treatment

Unlike many countries that may have 12-36 month wait lists, India can schedule treatment for international patients and complete their BMT within a matter of days or weeks. Time is critical for many blood cancer patients, and every day matters.

Extensive support for international patients

MedTriPlanner ensures you receive full end-to-end service throughout the entire process and can help assist you with obtaining a visa to be treated in India, accommodation, and post-discharge follow-up care. MedTriPlanner will ensure your journey from Bangladesh to India and back is safe, smooth, and stress-free.

Understanding Bone Marrow Transplant

A bone marrow transplant (also called a hematopoietic stem cell transplant) is a procedure to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy stem cells. It is a key treatment for blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma.
