Manipal or money minded pal!! which suits better. I think it is the 2nd one. I have visited this hospital several times, all they do is tests, tests, test and procedures, procedures and procedures. Treatment is probably 10% of the whole phenomenon. They want money for almost every visit (revisit after 7 days is fully chargeable in OPD).
They want everything to do in OPD because they know in IPD the insurance company will have them for all inflated bills and inappropriate treatments. You go to them for one complaint, they treat you for something else. This is my recent experience with Manipal hospital, I had a hot bubble on my thigh and went to Manipal hospital. After spending close to 5k only for tests and procedures, there was only a temporary cure and again the problem has resurfaced.
They want the whole family to go to them and get everybody to be tested that is a 20k process!! I have seen such money milking statistics for my cousin (couple of years back), my mom (last year), my colleague (last year). Manipal has only one motive - get the pockets emptied to the maximum possible extent. Treatment is no where on priority. I strongly suggest people not to visit this hospital.
