How cashless insurance works for arthroscopy & acl surgery
- Share your policy or corporate insurance card with the Lotus care team before admission.
- The team requests pre-authorisation from your insurer or TPA with the doctor’s estimate.
- The insurer approves an amount; you pay only non-covered items such as some consumables or room upgrades.
- At discharge the final bill is settled with the insurer, and you receive copies of all papers.
Planned surgeries often have waiting periods in a new policy. Ask your insurer whether arthroscopy & acl surgery has a waiting period or a sub-limit before you plan the date.

PATIENT QUESTIONS
Cost and insurance questions
How much does arthroscopy cost in Bangalore?
The cost depends on whether the procedure is diagnostic or involves ligament reconstruction or repair, the implants used, and the stay. Published Bengaluru market estimates are a useful starting point, but they vary between sources and hospitals. Ask a Lotus orthopaedic surgeon for a written, itemised estimate after assessment.
Is arthroscopy covered by health insurance?
Many health policies cover medically necessary arthroscopy, including day-care procedures, but terms, waiting periods and sub-limits vary. Lotus works with many insurers and TPAs; share your policy details with the care team before the procedure so eligibility and pre-authorisation can be checked.
