NUH ward charges & treatment charges
Ward charges between Gov & Private Hospital
Singapore Medical Insurance - is it necessary
Quote:
A simple appendicectomy can cost between S$2,000 and S$6,000. Cataract surgery can cost between S$3000 and S$5000 per eye.
An operation to treat colon cancer, between S$10,000-30,000 and a cardiac bypass operation up to S$25,000 and S$40,000.
Chemotherapy for cancer can range from S$10,000 to S$100,000 for a 6 month course depending on the type of medications used.
Arguably, these figures are derived from operation costs quoted to private patients but nevertheless, it gives us a clue as to how much treatment of an unexpected medical illness will cost.
Just a one night stay in an A class room in any public hospital will cost between S$450 and S$550, never mind the other charges like drugs, procedures etc.
A night’s stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) will set you back over S$1,000.
