Expensive and there is always the risk of incurring costs during the treatment process, making cardiovascular surgeries often likened to the "money-burning machine" of the patient. It is also for this reason that many patients hesitate to delay treatment, resulting in a reduced quality of life. How to solve this problem?
1. Cardiovascular surgery: “Rich people also cry”
Heart disease is a disease that makes "rich people cry". Not only because of the complexity and danger, but the cost of intervention or heart surgery in a case can cost a large amount of money.
According to Prof. TS.BS Vo Thanh Nhan, Director of the Cardiovascular Center, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital (HCMC): The cost of a transcatheter aortic valve replacement intervention (TAVI) from 600 to 900 million VND, 1 coronary stenting case is from 70 to 120 million VND; A heart surgery is from 80 million to 300 million VND depending on the severity of the disease... Especially when it comes to emergency treatment, not everyone can "manage" a large sum of money. That can be a barrier to patients not receiving treatment within the “golden” time frame for optimal effectiveness.

Intervention and heart surgery are both complicated techniques, not only requiring the skill level of doctors but also needing the support of modern machinery and equipment. Not to mention heart disease also affects the function of other organs. When heart failure is severe, the patient is prone to kidney failure, liver failure and after a major surgery, this situation will be even more severe, making the costs incurred after surgery to be higher. Problems with infection or the quality of post-operative care that can make hospital stay longer are also a concern for people with cardiovascular disease.
Therefore, if assessed accurately, in an overview, in a multi-speciality - having a consistent and thorough treatment plan is one of the conditions that helps patients with cardiovascular intervention/surgery to reduce development costs. born during hospital stay.

That is why Vinmec Central Park Hospital proposes this package of cardiovascular treatment” – Prof. TS.BS Vo Thanh Nhan, Director of Cardiovascular Center, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital (Ho Chi Minh City). HCM) shared.
With the full cardiovascular treatment model, patients will be diagnosed early, treated with multi-specialty according to the standard protocol of the prestigious Heart Association in the world - Prof. Vo Thanh Nhan, Director of Vinmec Heart Center Central Park said.
Since August 2019, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital (HCMC) has implemented the first Cardiovascular Treatment Package in Vietnam with outstanding advantages. Patients enjoy all the advantages of the service line model, which has been applied at many leading cardiovascular centers in the US such as: Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Pennsylvania...
Theo In that case, the patient will be diagnosed early and treated with multi-specialty according to the standard protocol of the prestigious Cardiology Association in the world. Instead of having only one main doctor or one treatment specialty as usual, patients will be consulted and agreed on a treatment plan from a team of doctors from many specialties (cardiology, interventional cardiology, etc.) anesthesia, resuscitation, imaging, testing, nutrition...) uniformly applied throughout the treatment period. Having access to such an optimal treatment method, patients will avoid having to try different methods, which are costly in terms of money, time and affect the effectiveness of treatment.

In addition, after signing a treatment contract with the hospital in the form of a package, the patient only needs to pay a one-time fee and does not arise during the treatment process. In case the patient does not have 100% of the immediate treatment costs, the hospital has cooperated with the Military Joint Stock Bank (MB Bank) to allow installment loans for medical expenses. This is especially meaningful for cases of emergency intervention or surgery, this financial support solution can help patients get treatment early in the golden hour to have a good chance of recovery.
