Apollo hospital jaynagar Bengaluru: Medical reports varied

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?

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.

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.

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?

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.

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!
