******* Medical costs

My son has been in hospital for 50 days. I find it unacceptable that the Greenacres hospital can charge R48 for a surgical mask and a gastroentologist R1,500 for a 5 minute in hospital consultation, just to introduce himself, without even examining the patient. What a ******* and disgrace😡 The Medical Aids should investigate as the Medical Aid premiums are high enough.. how can medical aids accept bills like this
