Pravda Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Live close to this hospital and have small infection, so decided to check it out. Kinda like you wanna try a new restaurant. After a small chat a doctor I was presented with a bill. 1000b doctor fee 350b administration fee 140b nurse fee Are these fees normal these days because I remember bumrungrad being cheaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure the 200 baht clinic would have sorted the issue as it's nothing complicated. Nothing to do with question asked which is how much other hospitals charge for seeing a doctor.

clivebaxter Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Ask at a good pharmacy, free and the medication is far cheaper, all that Rama iV hospital stuff has to be paid for! Edited October 1, 2021 by clivebaxter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userabcd Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Yes. The private hospitals for a long time are charging this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 At private hospital, doctor fees vary with the doctor. at Bumrungrad I see anything from 800 to 2000+ baht with the higher end being prominent specialists. Admin and "nursing" fees are hospital specific and some hospitals assess one or the other but not both, and some hospitals refer to it as "other hospital charges". Usually 200 - 300 baht so 350 + 140 (490 baht) is higher than most places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I never saw 2 charges separate like this. Is it possible they charge for registration? Edited October 1, 2021 by Pravda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hospital dentists have a long itemised list that make up the bill now. Edited October 1, 2021 by userabcd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need to ask what the "nurse fee" is and how it differs from the "admin fee". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
