Extensive research on the price variation and cost-benefits of medical robots (surgical/rehabilitation/non-invasive radiosurgery/hospital & pharmacy) has brought to light the factors influencing the prices of the robots and the cost-savings achieved through investment in the expansive capital equipment. Considering the on-going and rapid change occurring in the health care industry, hospitals are focusing on various ways to increase the quality of care delivered. Aligned with this trend, healthcare providers are increasingly adopting advanced technologies that help them realize increase in patient volumes as well as increasing patient satisfaction in the form of reduced surgical pain, reduced hospital stay and follow-up, and faster recovery time.

Below is the list of some of the benefits of Medical Robots:

Benefits To Clinics And Hospitals (Providers) & Patients


  • Surgical Robots & Non-Invasive Radiosurgery System (robotic based): Achieve cost savings in terms of reduced pre- and post-operation care costs and length of stay at hospitals

  • Pharmacy and Hospital Robotic systems: Achieve cost-saving through reduced manpower (required for medication dispensing, packaging, and labelling) and lowering medication error through automation

  • Rehabilitation Robots: Achieve cost saving through providing self-sufficiency to the disabled by reducing expenses incurred on external help & physiotherapy
