6k for 3 weeks stay? Cheap

You didnt read properly... they pay 6k of the total cost (10%). Means 54k or balance 90% paid by insurance.

My father got admitted to hospital recently for stroke, thank goodness he has medical insurance which covers him until 80 (he's 78), so we admit him to Pantai Hospital in Penang. The final cost is still be tallied, but I estimate we need to fork out around 6k for his 3 weeks stay in hospital, which is 10% of the total cost while insurance company will cover the 90%.
I'm wondering how much will Government Hospital cost for the same treatment? Anyone knows how much stroke treatment cost in GH for non-civil servant?

Most people think private better as if private no need to wait also.

Some say private layan better nurse smile better OK lo. Yes some do, you pay money so nurse will smile at you.

I've been to gov hospital family suspect heart attack. Their response was very quick, did all the tests xray ecg everything they can. Cost? RM 1 for registration.

You want comfort, go for private.
You want superior care because gov has so many specialist and so much more equipments, go for gov. Truly serious case, go gov.
