I thought since its a proper hospital there would be fixed charges for everything, would be still thinking that if I hadn’t overheard the nurses

Thanks ..Please also post  on Google reviews

Same with NH, HSR Layout. Went to a Pulmonologist. Dr specifically asked the cost of the place I stay at.

I hope you lied and did not fall into their trap

Be careful going to Apollo Clinic

Be careful going to Apollo Clinic- Grapevine

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

Apollo hospital jaynagar Bengaluru: Medical reports varied

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?

Acko health insurance looks good on paper. Any reviews on their claims process and claim settlement experience? 

Is it worth consideration?

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.

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.

Orthopaedic doctor in Bangalore

Is there any one else who feels India doesn't have good doctors anymore. I have seen some great hospitals for orthopaedic surgeon and none of them able to treat my knee pain.
Whenever I visited any doctor either they pick up phone call of their friends in mid consultation or just type the medicines name or irrevelant tests. 
Now I feel like I can't trust any doctor in India. 
Very less portion of good doctors remaining here.
Did anyone of you faced bad thing in hospital for you or your parents.

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.

Is cloudnine a good hospital? The staff mentioned the child birth package costs 2 lacs whether normal or c-section. Doesn't it seem 2 much?

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

Having almost  6yrs experience with single digit salary 😭 every friend and colleague are making a killing every recruiter I speak to just offer x% over last CTC but not the amount I ask stating budget issue. This is taking a toll on my mental health unable to focus on up skilling / working in current org plz help not sure what to do.

Stuck at low CTC and low confidence

I was wondering how big hospitals communicate within departments given that so many of the  are working in psylos. For example, department handling patients will send details of bill to account department, and further they'll again send that info to TPA (Insurance) and again back to accounts department. 
I mean as a patient I faced severe issue while getting all this cleared and there was no central communication channel (something like slack). 
Anyone in community has information about this?

Is communication a problem in hospitals?

Write about a time you made someone feel very nice. Hopefully it can be a collection of ideas that others can take forward. If somehow a few people do something nice as a result, that would be powerful.

To start with an example: Bought a laptop for my grandfather because he wanted to continue working post 60. Helped him learn Excel, Gmail, Chrome browsing over many days. He really picked it up, and works as a consultant for new companies in the industry he worked all his life.

You know its the small things that you do everyday that matter - giving your staff an off when they ask and not cutting their pay, feeding stray animals, quietly paying the bill when you know the other person is struggling financially, not haggling with street vendors for 100rs (when you’re paying 800rs to eat popcorn in PVR), changing the topic of conversation when you realise someone is feeling uncomfortable yet cannot say in front of others… we all need high empathy skills 🙏🏻

HR is two minds, should they go with this startup or traditional method

How is the experience with Plum as health insurance broker?

I have a friends who are doctors. When I met them yesterday, I brought up Grapevine somehow. Aftee going through they app, they wish they had something like this.
Can we add sections/communities for other sectors?

Is Grapevine only for Tech & IT Folks?

Now that you brought up doctors, I sort of realise that professions outside of IT/Tech would have a tough time understanding this.
