JayLeno Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Dear all, I have gallstones that obstructs the biliary conduct. They need to be removed using ERCP (Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) and I was wondering if anyone had a similar issues. I am looking for a place to remove them ASAP (at a reasonable price) using ERCP and at the moment I am still undergoing testing (but since I have visited a few doctors, it's the most probably root cause) in both public (I am covered as I have social security) and private hospital. Thanks all and take care of yourselves ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Which is your nominated SS hospital? Only some hospitals in Thailand have capacity to do ERCP. Mainly university hospitals and large "international" private hospitals. SS will cover you only at your nominated hospital or hospital it refers you to.

JayLeno Posted January 9, 2023 Author Share Posted January 9, 2023 I see... The diagnosis phase takes time and the doctor, in my SS attributed hospital, takes his time .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Which is your SS hospital?Does ti have capacity to do ERCP? Under SS it will either be free or with small additional charge (10-20k). At a private hospital ERCP + GB removal (usually done together) is around 400k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
