I'll be joining the crowd in mid May

Taking the 2 year old niece who was diagnosed with Tubero Sclerosis in January this year :(

Christian Medical College & Hospital in Vellore - Dr. Maya Mary Thomas.

There really isn't a cure and the doctors here have done a great job - but, she needs to have an MRI and no hospital here was willing to do one (she suffers from severe Infantile seizures). But, the doctors in India said - they had experience...so, there you are.

Don't really care about the piss taking by folks on either side - and healthcare in India is very cheap for what it is.

Hope she gets better. People here only troll bangladesh 4 fun no 1 has any real hard feelings.

Govt’s admirable decision on coronary stent price

Heart patients were suffering a lot because of the criminal collusion of stent traders and doctors.
It is learnt that a group of cardiologists, stent suppliers and drug manufacturers, were making profit out of cardiac patients’ sufferings and vulnerability for decades now in Bangladesh. Plentiful reports were published in the media on ways doctors and hospitals have held patients hostage and over-charged them for stents.
According to a New Age report, a patient of Dhaka was to pay Tk 2.3 lakh for two stents at the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases. These longstanding irregularities in the pricing of coronary stents are set to be resolved as the drug administration started setting prices of the life-saving medical device for patients with blocked coronary arteries. The Directorate General of Drug Administration introduced new rates and prices of most of the stents would now reduce by 20 to 90 per cent. Although a total of 21 companies import 47 types of stents to the country, the drug administration has primarily set prices of 26 types of stents of 11 importers. If this regulation is successfully implemented, it will be the beginning of an end to cardiac patients’ exploitation in the existing healthcare system.
