REVIEW
THIS
HOSPITAL
IS
HORRIBLE
AND
SCAMMING
FOR
MONEY
My
parents
tested
positive
for
COVID
and
we
took
appointment
with
Pulmonary
Specialist
Dr
Raghu
Deep.
My
mother
got
really
sick
and
her
oxygen
levels
were
fluctuating
between
85-95.
Since
her
levels
are
below
90
Doctor
advised
her
immediate
admit
in
ICU.
My
father
condition
was
normal
however
he
has
previous
medical
conditions
of
heart
and
diabetes.
His
oxygen
levels
were
normal,
he
didnβt
have
any
issues
other
than
mild
fever
and
cough.
Doctor
advised
him
to
get
admitted
in
general.
Prior
admitting
we
called
hospital
to
check
for
prices
so
that
I
can
arrange
money
accordingly.
Lady
who
answered
call
said
for
ICU
its
70,000
and
General
35-40,000RS
.
She
was
very
rude
and
not
willing
to
share
prices.
We
admitted
them
and
they
asked
for
2,40,000
advances.
1lac
per
person
and
20,000
each
for
some
charges.
We
had
no
option
but
to
arrange
payment
all
together.
Process
they
went
through
while
admitting-
First
they
went
to
causality
for
initial
tests.
All
tests
were
performed
on
same
beds
which
were
NOT
SANITIZED,
they
are
using
same
equipment
to
test
every
patient
and
same
beds
to
sit
and
laydown.
They
are
mixing
GENERAL
PATIENTS
with
COVID
PATIENTS
HOW
IS
THIS
EVEN
FAIR
FOR
OTHER
PAIENTS??
Later
that
night
after
their
formalities
they
moved
my
mother
to
ICU
and
father
to
general.
They
served
dinner-
LITTLE
RICE,
DAL
&
CURD.
I
MEAN
SERIOUSLY
????
COVID
PATIENTS
NEED
GOOD
PROTIEN
FOOD
AND
LOTS
OF
FRUITS.
WE
PAID
70,000
FOR
ICU
AND
40,000
general
ward
WE
ATLEAST
EXPECT
DECENT
FOOD.
Day
2
NEXT
DAY
MORNING-
TEA
&
2
IDILS
??
afternoon
Rice,
Dal,
Tomato
pickle
and
Behndi???
THEY
ARE
ON
HIGH
MEDICATION.
I
spoke
to
my
mom
that
day
she
said
FOOD
WAS
HORRIBLE
and
she
was
so
hungry
and
asked
me
get
food
from
home
.
Since
she
was
in
ICU
I
could
only
get
her
biscuits
they
were
not
allowing
any
food.
But
I
still
arranged
food
from
home
and
requested
to
feed
that
food.
Afternoon
I
went
for
visit
to
check
on
them,
Doctor
said
my
Mother
is
doing
fine
and
they
moved
her
to
general
ward
and
they
are
monitoring
both
my
parents
and
did
tons
of
tests
on
both
of
them.
After
my
consultation
with
Doctor,
nurse
came
to
me
for
payment
and
asked
to
me
make
a
payment
for
50,000
each
for
medication
advance.
I
didnβt
had
any
money,
so
I
was
requested
to
adjust
from
my
advance.
NURSE
SAID
THAT
IS
NOT
POSSIBLE
IF
I
DONβT
MAKE
PAYMENT,
THEY
WILL
STOP
MEDICATION.
I
was
totally
SHOCKED
AND
IN
TEARS.
I
ARRANGED
ANOTHER
1
LAC
RUPEES
ONLY
FOR
MEDICATION.
I
KEEP
TELLING
EVERYONE
AT
HOSPITAL
INCLUDING
DOCTOR
THAT
I
CANNOT
AFFORD
HIGH
MEDICAL
BILLS
PLEASE
CONSIDER
GIVING
THEM
GOOD
TREATMENT
AND
DISCHARGE
AS
SOON
AS
POSSIBLE.
Day
2
THEY
MOVED
MY
MOTHER
TO
MY
FATHERβS
ROOM
AND
CHARGED
40,000rs
FOR
EACH.
SHARED
ROOM
PRICE
WAS
LESS
THAN
INDUVIDUAL
ROOM
BUT
THEY
STILL
CHARGED
SAME
PRICE.
HOW
FAIR
IS
THIS
??
I
KEEP
TELLING
THEM
I
CANNOT
AFFORD
NO
ONE
WAS
READY
TO
LISTEN.
AFTER
PAYING
3,40,000
IN
LESS
THAN
24HOURS
I
WAS
SO
EXHAUSTED
AND
SCARED
TO
EVEN
GO
HOSPITAL
BECAUSE
I
WAS
SURE
THEY
WILL
ASK
MORE
MONEY
NEXT
DAY.
I
WAS
JUST
CRYING
AND
CRYING
COULDNβT
SLEEP
AND
VERY
SCARED
FOR
MY
PARENTS
AND
THE
WAY
HOSPITAL
WAS
TREATING
THEM
WAS
HORRIBLE.
