Eleven Thousand

That is the total bill from mom's recent body check-up. She was admitted 3 days 2 nights to the Sunway Medical Center - did an MRI, a minor lipoma (body fat) removal surgery, an OGDS, a colonoscopy, blood test for liver function, kidney function, blood sugar, cholesterol level and etc.

RM11,000.00 - that is equivalent to 2,444 plates of chicken rice (assuming it is RM4.50 per plate). How can any commoner afford to pay this figure without a medical card? Like OUCH?! Hospital bills are spiking crazy. Or maybe it is their way to squeeze money from insurance company....could it, hmm...

By the way, mom's doing great. Her medical report is way better than mine. ^^
