The original, the endless love song
A while ago, i took tom to the pet hospital for vaccination. When doctors routinely examined tom's two “dog teeth” were broken。
The doctor said it would be better to have root tube treatment, otherwise it would be easily infected. I asked how much。
“15,000”. The doctor said faceless that it seemed that the price was not high。
I'm scared of this price, but i can't be poor
I smiled and said:
"is he too expensive?"
Doctors seem to be used to me as an obscurant, “it's not expensive, it's not what people do.”
"but my cat is only 4,000." i looked at tom, afraid he could understand。
"you can't say that. Your love for pets is priceless."
I looked at tom lying on the table, bleeding inside, "i'll think about it. Turn around and take tom。
I hit tom when i got home, and i yelled, "you're more expensive than me!" tom looked at me with a sad face, and inside he said, "damn shit, don't show me your teeth and hit me!"
A lot of plowers seem to have the same experience. Over the years, there has been an increase in the number of pets, a rapid development in pet-related industries and a growing number of pet hospitals. But every time you take a pet to a hospital, it's expensive, as if it's more expensive。
People and dogs
But it's not cheap to see a patient, after all these years of "difficult, expensive". So, is it a patient or a pet
With this problem in mind, i compared the price list of a beijing university-affiliated pet hospital to the rates of a shanghai-based medical school-affiliated sancha hospital, both of which are very regular medical facilities。
A one-to-one comparison will be made below with regard to registration, testing, testing, treatment, surgery, etc。
Registered:
People are more expensive than dogs
Whether you go to a hospital or take a pet to a pet hospital, the first step is registered. Although there are many ignorant humans who don't sign up to the clinic and say, “doctor, i'm not registered, i'm consulting.”
Follow-up examinations and treatment can only be carried out if registered。
As can be seen from the chart below, general outpatient consultations amount to $25, emergency medical consultations amounting to $27, specialist outpatient consultations amounting to $40, specialist outpatient consultations amounting to $288, state council experts on special allowances at the highest level, with $500 for members of the college, and similar levels in other public tri-acity hospitals。
Patient hospital clinics are also divided into general, emergency and special needs clinics, $20 for general, $30 for emergency and $150 for special needs。
As can be seen, whether general or specialist, human registration costs are more expensive than pets. It is worth noting that in some photos of internet users, pet hospitals are cheap, some even hundreds。

Test:
Dogs are more expensive than men
Hang up, you or your dog go to the clinic. After careful examination by the doctor, the examination can begin. The tests are known as laboratory tests, and blood and body fluid tests reveal many problems. The more common tests are the three main routines — blood, urine, faeces — and here we compare the cost of the three。
The blood cell classification, which we often call the blood routine, shows here a human test blood cell analysis of $20, c reaction protein (crp, an inflammation indicator) of $30, dog blood cell analysis of $120 and crp 120. (note: humans are three categories, dogs are five categories, humans are hs-crps and dogs are crps, with a certain difference)。
The difference between manure and urine is even more exaggerated: 3 pieces of manure, 10 pieces of manure, 10 pieces of urine, 60 pieces of dog shit, 20 counts of blood, 10 counts of urine
Inspection:
Dogs are more expensive than men
The most common of the so-called inspections are some visual checks that can see changes in tissue organs inside the body, such as x-rays, cts, b super. Here we compare chest x-rays, ct sweeps and enhancements。
Chest x-ray, human 70, dog 150。
The cost of a ct check is five times that of a human dog
The main reasons may be the high cost of testing machines, the lower number of examinations in pet hospitals and the higher cost of sharing. In addition, considering that pets are not compatible with humans, these tests are difficult and therefore costly。
Treatment:
Dogs are more expensive than men
The tests and tests were completed, and the diagnosis was generally clearer, requiring follow-up treatment。
If you walk down the road accidentally and get hit by a car, you'll get hurt in the vagina, the owner of the car will be afraid to take the blame and take out the enemy's fear from the trunk and try to get you killed, and then you'll have difficulty excavating because of your vagina。
This is when you get to the hospital and you need oxygen, urine, gastrics, and medication. Don't be afraid, these treatments are very cheap. Thirty major changes, two dollars an hour on oxygen. Pipe 20, stomach 50, absolute conscience price。
If your dog had the same misfortune, your wallet would be dangerous. A major change of medicine of 100, 40 hours of oxygen (upgraded from a networked cafÉ to a web-connected cafe vip room), directed urine of 200, stomach wash of 500。
Operation:
Dogs are more expensive than men
There are many types of surgery, and they're not very comparable. For example, when pets are more common, humans don't do it. Cats and dogs cut their balls easily, and humans usually had to remove their genital organs because of tumors。
But there's a magic operation that humans and pets can do, and that's circumcision。
Don't ask me why dogs cut their skin. I don't know. Is it for good
In fact, doggies perform skin surgery, mostly because they're plastered. The human corset is 253 and the dog corset is 500。
And here's a comparison of the cost of anatomy. The cost of surgery for human mortuary sections is $1357, while for small dogs it is $1,000 and for giant dogs it is $2,000。
In terms of surgical costs, although the pets are more expensive than humans, the difference is less pronounced。
Summary
From the above comparison, the costs of pets are more expensive than those of humans, except for the individual costs of general examinations, tests, treatments, surgery, etc。
It seems to us that in the same situation or disease, the treatment of pets is more expensive than humans. The main reason for this is the fact that the chinese health-care authorities take into account the pro bono nature of public hospitals and that the criteria for the cost of medical treatment have been set at a low level and have not been raised for a long time。
In practice, however, we often hear about the cost of medical care, but rarely about the hundreds of thousands of dollars that people spend to save their pets, after all, when they really spend so much on their pets。
As a result, the cost of human access to hospitals is very high and the floor is very low. But the ceiling is much lower when pets go to the pet hospital。
On the other hand, it is also a disease in which humans have health insurance reimbursement and pets are rarely insured, which leads to a subjective perception that pets are more expensive。
Note that:
First, a more regular university-affiliated pet hospital and a three-ace hospital were selected for comparison, and in practice many private pet hospitals and private hospitals differ considerably from the price in this paper
Second, the comparison is based on a selection of representative project costs, which may be somewhat biased for reference purposes only; third, the cost of treatment such as anaesthesia, oral, etc. Is more affected by various factors, which are not comparable here
Fourthly, the cost of drugs and consumables is actually the bulk of the total cost of treatment, but there are significant differences between the use of pets and humans, which are not comparable, and therefore are no longer comparable here。
