What abortion costs in Goa, and what changes the number
Lawful, licensed, confidential. Termination of pregnancy at Pai Hospital is carried out lawfully under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971 (as amended), at a licensed facility, by registered medical practitioners, within the limits and the certification that the Act requires. We do not carry out or offer sex determination of any kind, at any stage, for any reason. Your identity and your treatment are confidential.
You do not need to leave the state, and you are given one figure before anything is done — a figure that does not change at the end. Pai Hospital in Vaddem, Vasco-da-Gama takes you from consultation through to the procedure and the follow-up in one building. Call or WhatsApp with roughly how many weeks you think you are and we will give you a private estimate before you decide anything.
How your figure is settled
- An estimate on the phone. Usually close — but it rests on a recent ultrasound, and it cannot account for an examination that has not happened yet, so it stays an estimate.
- Assessment and examination here. On arrival, the hospital's own certified doctors assess you, examine you and repeat the investigations themselves, so your exact situation and how many weeks you are is known rather than assumed.
- A precise, itemised cost. Only then, and set out separately: hospital, medical, pharmacy and laboratory.
- A promised package, in rupees. Hospital fees are taken in full in advance, and the amount does not move at the end of the treatment. The figure you are given is the figure you pay; nothing is added at discharge.
What actually changes the cost
- How many weeks you are. Earlier and later pregnancies are managed differently, and that changes what is involved. Earlier is usually the simpler treatment as well as the safer one.
- Medical or surgical. Medical (pill) termination and surgical termination involve different consultations, medication and procedure time.
- Whether this is a first visit or a follow-up. A dating scan usually comes first, and a follow-up visit afterwards confirms everything is complete. Both are part of the overall cost, not optional extras.
- Any tests you need. Occasionally a blood test is needed before either route, depending on your history.

Why patients in Goa stay in Goa
One hospital, start to finish
Consultation, scan, procedure and follow-up all happen at Pai Hospital in Vaddem, Vasco-da-Gama, and the scan is done in our own department by our own doctors on the day you arrive. One place, one bill, one team who already know your situation.
Free pickup and drop
The hospital runs its own cars. We collect you from Margao, Panjim, Mapusa or anywhere else in Goa — and from across the border in Karnataka and Maharashtra — and bring you home again afterwards, free of cost. For many patients that removes the largest hidden cost of the whole visit.
Three registered doctors and a government MTP licence
The operating theatre is licensed by the government specifically for termination of pregnancy, and where the law asks for a second doctor's opinion for a more advanced pregnancy, that opinion is given here, on the same visit.
100% disposable instruments
Every instrument and consumable that touches you is single-use. Nothing is reused between patients.
Nobody will know you were here
Privacy is designed into how the visit runs — who you meet, where you wait, what is written down and where it is kept. Nothing about your visit is discussed outside the room or shared with anyone: not your family, not your employer, not anyone who telephones asking. The staff are trained over years to be non-judgemental, and nobody will ask you to explain or justify yourself. Many of the women treated here are unmarried, which is entirely lawful and changes nothing at all about the care you are given. You do not need anyone else's permission for the decision.
If a termination elsewhere was incomplete
If you had a procedure somewhere else and now have heavy bleeding, fever, ongoing pain, or you are simply unsure whether it is complete, come in or call. This is a medical situation that needs attention regardless of where the original procedure was done, and we will not ask you to explain why you are here.
How to get an actual number
Call or WhatsApp with roughly how many weeks you think you are, and whether you already know whether you would prefer the medical or the surgical route. We will talk you through what is involved and what it costs before you commit to anything, and everything you tell us stays confidential.

Why isn't there a price listed on this page?
Because an honest figure depends on your own examination — how many weeks you are and which method suits you. What we do commit to is that the itemised figure you are given after that examination is the figure you pay.
Can the cost go up at the end?
No. Once you have been assessed and examined here, the itemised figure — hospital, medical, pharmacy and laboratory — is a promised package, and hospital fees are taken in full in advance.
Do I need to travel outside Goa for this?
No. Pai Hospital in Vaddem, Vasco-da-Gama handles the consultation, the scan, the procedure and the follow-up visit in one place.
Is transport included?
Yes. We send a car for you and bring you home again, free of cost, from anywhere in Goa and from across the border in Karnataka and Maharashtra.
I had a procedure elsewhere and think something is wrong. Can I still come to you?
Yes. Come in or call straight away — this is a medical concern that needs attention regardless of where the original procedure happened.
