Imho this can happen with anyone. It's your mistake you didn't check the name on report. How can you blame on hospital where 100's of patients are there. People do such mistakes by misplacing files when they are handling multiple patients.

Then why should they call it a multi speciality hospital? 
  
 These kind of dilemma make me to believe: some small individual hospitals are better than multi speciality hospitals. 
  
 Why are they advertising, marketing! 
 To make mistakes?  
  
 Shame.

So, last month my sister had a severe headache.
She went to Apollo multi-speciality hospital in jaynagar and whole body check up.

She got the reports mixed with some other person reports.

Neither did the doctor recognise my sister the reports patient name on the name
And she checked with other hospitals and she got the solution.

The thing is she got reported as she is having right amount hemoglobin I've arround 14 but actually she had less than 9

While she visited the other hospitals she stated she had a good amount of hemoglobin and doctor was shocked seeing the correct reports which mentioned 9 hemoglobin.

After a month we noticed the reports and found out the reports were different patient.

NB: the first three pages were correct and rest 3-4 pages were varied with someone else report




So, what should I do to Apollo hospital 
Shall I file a police case ? 
What valid reason I can mention?

Need your help and support

Went there for a fracture, the doctor asked about my company and job . I thought its just normal conversation. Later when I got the bill it was very high, overheard the nurses saying that this amount is too high for the procedure.

My mother is diagnosed with Grade 4 liver damage today. She also has Type 2 diabetes which "does not subside"

She doesn't eat any sugars, cut out starch, very very occasional outside/packaged food, no alcohol, has been working (job and household), works around clock in the house
Taking allopathic medicines for diabetes, now may start diet restrictions for Liver damage too

Strongly feel she is being mis-diagnosed. 
The hospitals and diagnostic centre are trying to milk healthy people too. How else do you keep up revenue

Have you faced similar situations? What can be done here?

P.S. Most of the doctors we have met are big C, the ones who sound genuine are the ones not treating 😪

Hi,

I'm planning to get a annual full body health checkup in Bangalore.
But I'm confused with a lot of options.
1. Orange Health
2. Apollo Hospital
3. Manipal Hospitals

What is the best among the above, or is there any other good place available?

Best place for Health checkup

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Does anyone have the recommendation for the best hospital in Bengaluru for comprehensive annual health checkup ? It is for my old age parent who seem to be visibly healthy but don’t want to take any chances here.

How can I get a fake medical certificate to get sick leave? Can doctors give me a fake prescription or note for a serious disease? I know it is wrong so I am not sure if doctors would do that. This there any app where I can fake medical certificate?

Today I went to one hospital to do MRI because I was having a pain in naval and stomach area. Hospital is quoting 15k for the scan and additional 2k , totalling to 17k . Bangalore City is this much expensive for the healthcare solutions? Am I robbed here ? Any suggestions welcome.

Expensive Bangalore?

I was standing near Whitefield in my 4 wheeler around midnight, just away from the hustle bustle of the fast life, smoking a cigarette and had a beer 1 hour before the incident (beer can was present in the car) when a police Jeep stopped and asked me to come out. 

They checked my entire car (to find more illegal drugs 'read Marijuana') but didn't find anything. 

Started threatening me with the car seizure. 
When I asked them to do breath analyzer test as I was 100% sure of being in the permissible limit, they asked me to come to police station for the same after they issue me a challan. 

How can they issue a drink driving challan when I am not drunk and without a breath analyzer?
And started threatening me with 25000 rs fine plus car being released in 6 months plus more than a lac of rupees in lawyer cost. (Ofcourse bullshitting me)

They were doing the proper good cop bad cop tactic and I had to pay them 7k bribe just to get out of there. (Couldn't risk the whole court drama, couldn't afford time as I was roaming without the knowledge of my family and avoid anxiety to them and my car also has northern registration)


But is this justified ? 
Can we not even smoke a cigarette in our vehicle in this godforsaken city  ? 
Do we need to be mindful of the goons or the police ? 

Anyways, what is the best way to get out of such situations?

you paid them bribes and have the audacity to question them doing illegal stuff ?

Anyone having experience with medical insurance claims? 

I added claim for appendix operation and I’m on notice period. My managers and HRs are ghosting me. Plum comes back asking for the same document. 

Have a big amount (the amount looks big to me) used up for this as the hospital didn’t have cashless facility. 

What to do here? Feeling helpless.

Medical Insurance Claims

Hi, as I was getting out of the hospital, an old lady unable to walk properly approached me and said she doesn't have money to buy BP, Sugar meds. She said that they didn't have the prescibed meds inside and I believed it. I was in a hurry so I didn't check if she was lying or now. I felt bad and gave her 500 rupees. Was I scammed? I, anyway, am writing this off as charity, but just wanted to know if it was legit or not.

Looking for a GOOD orthopaedic doctor in Bangalore who can diagnose & help me with my knee pain while running.

Any leads/personal experiences is appreciated.

Can multi-speciality boutique hospitals like Manipal/Apollo/Narayana do something here?
How’s Victoria, St. John’s, Manipal or Narayana? 

I’ve been in touch with NIMHANS & St John’s, they have been a bit discouraging.

Areas of specialisation required: diabetes, psychiatry & a bit of Neuro.

Which hospitals in Bangalore allow admission of uncooperative patients?

Thinking about Acko platinum for 4+2(Parents)+2(Parents In-laws) , in Acko platinum estimated cost would be roughly INR 1.4Lakhs for 1 crore insurance. 
If someone has any better option please let me know. 
Thanks

Alert: a rant post

Today I saw my payslip after a long time and WTH! I don't know what they'll take once bonus comes in. Paying this much for no water, bad air, corrupt babus and all those douche things.

As much as patriotic I am, this is just insane. On top of this add all the GST and sheet ton of other indirect taxes.

Living in India and paying like Europe. Wow!

Duck the government

Earning around 50 lpa at 24 is already a great feat. Still if u want to look at the dark side, nobody can help. This rant is more common than diabetes. Yet people will stress about same thing and rant to destress. Endless cycle. Either do something about it or bring some new perspective. P.S. I am in alignment with ur rant but I’ve made peace with the state of affairs as I am not looking to move out of India and I cannot strong arm govt. individually to change this.
