QUOTE Some argue that patients with insurance can end up paying 100 per cent more than those who pay out-of-pocket (OOP). This is very true. Happened to my friend. Gall bladder stone removal. Pay by insurance RM20k. Cash 8k The whole private hospitals/medical insurance is a big scam.

This statement is already FISHY! QUOTE O’Dell strongly disagreed with Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia (APHM) president Dr Kuljit Singh’s assertion that private hospital bills cannot be regulated.

QUOTE(Minolta @ Aug 29 2024, 09:55 AM) Ini unsubstantiated claim. No detail head or tail. Macam sensationalised. This case got name and bill breakdown. Can see details. More substantiated. THAT is a real life experience. It's for gall stone removal some years back.

QUOTE(30624770 @ Aug 29 2024, 10:12 AM) How is insurance a scam in this case? They settled the claims even though it’s 20K when it should be 8K only? Do you understand medical insurance? Most med insurance have limits of coverage. If they claim 20k instead of the 8k form your insurance, you lose 12k from your covered amount.

QUOTE(30624770 @ Aug 29 2024, 10:47 AM) Again I ask you, how is it insurance fault? The cost is only 8K and they need to pay 20K. It will hit their claims profile and reduce their profits. Claims is the biggest costs to insurance companies. Did i say its insurance fault?
