Hi all,

Can anyone share your experience to me if you have a relative or your immediate family member did a pacemaker surgery before? How much it cost for the device now and the total fees for this surgery? The patient ( My dad)has no medical card and we might need to seek for other options beside IJN.

Thank you for your sharing.

Maybe you can get second opinion at other hospitals.

This was what paid for the pacemaker surgery of a close relative.
I know coz i was the one who paid it.

Different patient would have different health condition, so you can always go get the quotation that fit your condition.
