More and more netizens were attracted and concerned by an incident of a woman in a hot pot restaurant in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, who was scratched by chopsticks. According to the store's sharing, the woman accidentally scratched her finger while wiping her chopsticks with wet wipes, which led to a series of medical expenses, which was shocking. Afterwards, the store took the woman to a well-known public hospital in Xi'an for **. However, unusually, the hospital gave the woman the treatment of hospitalization and surgery. The cost of the operation was as high as $10,000, plus hospitalization and other expenses, and finally cost $17,000. In the face of such a huge expense, the store felt very aggrieved, and he posted the matter on the Internet, which sparked heated discussions among the majority of netizens.
This unexpected event is incredible! A small chopstick scratch actually requires surgery**, and it incurs such a high cost. In general, if you are injured at home, you only need to clean the wound and apply it at mostBand-aids, the wound will be healed in three or four days. There is no need to be hospitalized for surgery at all. Therefore, netizens questioned this high cost. How can a small incision be like a broken muscle and bone, and it needs surgery**? In the face of such a big movement, netizens expressed their doubts.
Some netizens ridiculed:"If you get bitten by a mosquito in the summer, how much will it cost? Do I still have to be admitted to the ICU? "Fortunately, the woman sought medical attention in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. In fact, for such small wounds, it is not difficult to deal with them by yourself. You can take out a band-aid, iodophor and a medical cotton swab, but the cost is less than 20 yuan. It only takes a few days and it's completely free. Some netizens shared their experience, he said that his finger was also stabbed with chopsticks, and he picked it out with a needle, although he bleed a little, but it was fine. Therefore, everyone has questioned, how big is this wound, did it puncture the major artery? Generally speaking, in rural areas, it is inevitable that you will be pricked by some bamboo sticks, and you only need to pull it out and disinfect it yourself, or suck the wound with your mouth, and you can solve the problem. However, spending 17,000 yuan is really shocking. Even though this is a tertiary hospital, something like this does happen. A small chopstick stab actually had to undergo open surgery, which really opened the eyes of netizens.
Netizens have said that the hospital exaggerated a trivial injury and put forward the claim of excessive medical treatment as a way to earn the patient's fee. In response to this incident, Xi'an Red Cross Hospital did not give any relevant response. At present, only the store has spoken, and the woman involved and the hospital have not yet expressed their views. However, with the fermentation of events on social ** and the heated discussion of **, this will definitely have a certain impact on the reputation of the hospital. We hope that the hospital will be brave enough to come forward and respond to the problem. It is really beyond everyone's awareness that a small scratch needs to be operated on, and the cost is higher than the cost of childbirth and hospitalization for a pregnant woman.
This incident is still fermenting, which has attracted everyone's attention. I wonder if you have encountered a similar situation? Feel free to share your experiences and opinions in the comment section.
