Patient's question:
My little nephew is one week old. After coming back from the hospital, he has a slight fever. After using physical cooling methods, he fevered up again in the second half of the night and cried non-stop. When checked at the hospital, it was found to be pneumonia. He is currently in the hospital being cared for by a doctor. Is hospitalization for neonatal pneumonia reimbursed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you. Neonatal pneumonia requires hospitalization for treatment. The medical expenses for hospital treatment of neonatal pneumonia are eligible for reimbursement. In such cases, it is essential to choose sensitive antibiotics for intravenous infusion while also checking for heart problems, high fever, or difficulty breathing. Generally, it is necessary to prevent heart failure and undergo hospital treatment, and these costs are covered by reimbursement.
