The same calculation for each pair the database can currently answer. A low median is a real answer too.

How these numbers are made
Every figure comes from dated observations at named providers, compared against published home tariffs and price lists. The percentage is the midpoint of the local price against the midpoint of the home price, and stops at 99 for anything that still costs money. Items without a price on both sides are counted but not compared. Every price carries its observation date, however old, and none is left out for age.
An estimate is shown on its item page with a label and never counts here: 40 comparisons across all pairs of countries were left out because one side was only an estimate.
A price named in a customer review is a visitor's recollection, not a figure a seller published: it is shown on its item page with a label and never counts here either. 85 comparisons were left out because one side was only a review.
A public hospital's official tariff is what the state says a procedure costs, not what a visitor is charged at the counter: the site puts no percentage on one and neither does this report. 403 comparisons were left out for that reason.
