Buenos Aires Medical Costs

[Caribbean Cool]

I am trying to learn what actual medical costs are here in B.A. I know I saw a dermatologist for 1800 pesos or so. I had a heart exam today for an insurance policy...cost 1100 pesos and some lab tests for 900 pesos. I would like to know actual costs, especially for things like heart attacks or problems...cancer and other big ones. But all procedures really. Not opinions but real cases if possible. Thanks to all who can contribute.

P.S. You can even say "a friend payed xxx" to keep private if it pleases.

I would say that there are very few people who are paying for major procedures in this way. Either people are covered by their medical insurance or they are treated in a public hospital.

I mean... you could always call up the hospital and ask for a quote?

I want to pay and I don't want call. Nada mas.

If you are a resident and have a CABA address apply for Cobetura Poteña de Salud ..! It's free.at hospital Fernandez..Just Sayin..
I'm afraid hospitals don't give quotes on the phone..?

I've been to two OBGYNs, one for 2000 per visit, the other 1200. Both offered free samples for prescriptions. Lab fees up to 7775.
