Sodam-dong Elephant Pediatrics and Adolescent Clinic

 

I visited the first class the next morning at 8am because my high school daughter came home early from school with a high fever.

It's been very noisy and bustling with children these days because of the flu epidemic.

 

I noticed I had a high fever, so I took a flu test and it came back as type A flu.

 

They explain that oral medication Tamiflu is taken for 5 days and has side effects, and that intravenous fluid therapy immediately reduces fever and helps with recovery, but they recommend taking three things together with nutritional supplements.

 

The cost is explained as 200,000 won in total for three options, so choose wisely, but this is what I recommend.

Please explain to the doctors and nurses that it is covered by health insurance.

 

They say that there are differences in document preparation and payment depending on the insurance company.

When I went to the doctor because my child had a high fever, there was no further explanation about whether it would be good to give him nutritional supplements.

 

With the three fluid treatments, the child's fever went down quickly, he started eating and feeling better, and although he still had a runny nose, he felt better.

 

The advantage is that you can give birth quickly without suffering for a long time.

 

The area that needs improvement is the actual cost insurance claim.

I think it would be good to explain that nutritional supplements and multivitamins do not cost money, but if taken, recovery is faster.

 

I think it's impossible not to know this while working at a hospital.
