500 rs?? Good thing you don't live in the states, would have been a 5000 dollar operation!

- Forplax 13y agoNormally I'm happy to jump into a "bash US healthcare" conversation, but as someone who recently experienced exactly this issue off-insurance, I can tell you that office visit + procedure runs anywhere from $200-$400 out of pocket. Since it's a 5 minute in-office thing, most of that cost would be hidden behind a copay to those with decent insurance. Nothing like 500Rs, to be sure. But not quite four figures yet.
