It is said that our domestic hospitals charge high fees. What are the standards of foreign hospitals?

Many people think that domestic hospitals charge low fees and foreign hospitals charge high fees. This is actually a wrong idea. Foreign hospitals charge low fees, which are also aimed at patients with medical insurance. Hospitals are public hospitals. The cost of people without medical insurance in the hospital is very high. If it is a private hospital or a family doctor, the cost will be higher.

In the United States, if there is no medical insurance and no medical reimbursement, going to the hospital may make people lose their money. I once saw a news in a WeChat official account newspaper that a family traveled to the United States and the child accidentally dislocated his left hand while playing. The couple took their son to a local hospital in America. Although the patients in the hospital didn't talk much, it took more than half an hour to register.

After several doctors' examination and inquiry, A4 actually wrote more than 40 pages of medical records, and negotiated with various personnel for 4 hours before reading a simple dislocation. The final bill is even more frightening. The total discounted cost is 1767.6 USD, which is about 1 1800 RMB. If they don't buy travel insurance in advance, the cost of seeing a doctor is really too high.

Britain has a free universal health insurance system, which makes many people feel that it is free to pay for medical treatment in Britain. In fact, the British medical system is hierarchical, including basic medical care and large hospitals. Patients cannot go directly to large hospitals for treatment unless they go to private hospitals at their own expense.

This free medical care system is aimed at public hospitals, but public hospitals are inefficient and have a long waiting time for appointments. In order to reduce medical costs, some large public hospitals will reduce many examination items, which is very irresponsible to patients. Some patients can only choose private hospitals with higher costs in order to seek medical treatment in time.
