Cost of emergency C sect

[MilkSheikh_]

Hello everyone, firstly i would like to apologize if this is the wrong section to post.

My wife is bearing a healthy girl weighing 3.7kg and is due this 22nd May. Doctor advised her against normal delivery and was told to opt for a c-section because she's small in size and she might not be able to push. We were given a week to decide till our next appointment. When we came down for that appointment we were told that there is no available date for a scheduled c-section and the only way is to go for an emergency c-section. Any idea how much would an emergency c-section would cost after maxing out my medisave. Hospital is at KKH.

I had an emergency c-section last year at kkh and the cost was around $9K+. However it was under ward A1 hence no subsidy.

Yes can use. $9K was the amount before medisave. Will share the actual amount later.
