My friend just had her appendix out, and she says that her total bill is about 1.3 million won...

Does this sound right if she has the national health insurance plan? I always thought that medical insurance was such a great deal here, but it's not if it doesn't cover surgeries.

Has anyone else had any surgeries under the coverage plan?

Sounds about right.. check out the bill... the actuall cost was probably around 5 million won..

I paid 1/5th of what my knee surgery actually cost...
