Got many types of room in private centre. The fella chose to stay in a 2k+ room. One night stay. Almost as much as doctor fees (split between surgeon and anesthetist some more). Obviously he chose this room becoz insurance pay. If own pocket, will he choose a top tier room? This is likely a suite. I think most private hospital for rm100+ beds for 4 person sharing.

im in this industry.

outside medicine price of course is discounted/bulk price, we have to put retail price to do insurance claim.
somemore insurance will deduct out the betterment depends on your body every year.

if not our hospital earn what?

Point is: Are you OK with this sort of unethical practice by the private hospitals?

Karma. The insurance industry is one of the causes of why private health practitioners are overcharging.

You mean:

If i pay cash, the bill is RM8k.
If by insurance, the bill is RM20k.

IS ETHICAL?
