The journal of an Emigrant from Florida who spent almost 5 years in Uruguay...
 

With the cost of medical care spiraling upwards in the US, I thought you might be interested in what my maternity ward stay cost me.

The Doctor charged US$300 for he and his team.

The Hospital charge me US$400 for the private room, the srugical suite and miscellaneous items.

The US made balloon for my stomach cost US$1700 and we bought it directly from the medical supply house, it was NOT marked up by the doctor or hospital.

Hmmmmmm…..

    David-

    It sounds like all went well. Let us know.

    Two questions:

    - How long was your stay?

    Was the $300 charge for the doctor/team including pre op and surgery?

    Best wishes and a speedy recovery!
