Adjustment on medical expenses requiredVietNamNet Bridge – Although inpatient room costs have increased sharply, medical quality remains stagnant, according to the latest report by Viet Nam Social Insurance (VSI). “It is acceptable to pay the huge amount of money on medicines and medical services rather than the inpatient room. At some medical facilities, the impatient room cost is twice as high as the medicine cost. Phuc asked hospitals to equip the rooms with enough appliances for patients to enjoy medical services commensurate with the amount of money they spent. “I think patients have to receive quality medical services, demonstrated through medical facilities, appliances in inpatient rooms and utilities,” he said.
