Charging standards for breast augmentation in public hospitals
With the increasing pursuit of beauty, breast augmentation surgery has gradually become a common way of plastic surgery. As the main provider of social medical services, public hospitals also began to provide breast augmentation surgery services. The charging standards for breast augmentation in public hospitals will be described in detail from several aspects.

1. Operation expenses
The cost of breast augmentation surgery is the main item of breast augmentation in public hospitals. The operating expenses mainly include doctor's operating expenses, nurse's nursing expenses, operating room use fees, etc. The specific operation cost varies according to the level of different hospitals and doctors. Generally speaking, the higher the operation cost, the higher the professional level of doctors, and the better the operation process and effect.
The charging standard of the operation cost is usually determined according to the difficulty of the operation and the duration of the operation. For example, for a common breast augmentation surgery, the charging standard may be between 5000 and 10000 yuan. However, it should be noted that the cost of surgery often only includes the cost of surgery itself, not the cost of postoperative care and implants.
In addition to the cost of surgery, public hospitals may also charge additional fees for preoperative examinations to ensure that the patient's physical condition is suitable for breast augmentation surgery. The cost of these preoperative examinations also varies from hospital to hospital, usually between 500-2000 yuan.

Breast implants are required for breast augmentation surgery, so the cost of materials is another charge item for breast augmentation in public hospitals. The prices of different types and brands of prostheses will also vary. Generally, the price of silicone prosthesis is higher than that of saline prosthesis.
In addition, for some advanced customized prostheses, the cost of materials will also increase accordingly. For example, some hospitals provide customized chest prostheses, which are designed according to the shape and needs of patients' chest and made by professional manufacturers. This customized chest prosthesis not only has higher material quality, but also can better meet the needs of patients, but also has higher price.
3. Anesthesia expenses
Breast augmentation surgery requires local or general anesthesia, so the anesthesia cost is also a charge for breast augmentation in public hospitals. Anesthesiologist's anesthesia expense is usually charged according to the operation time.
In addition, the cooperation of multiple anesthesiologists may be required in some complex operations, which will also increase the cost of anesthesia. Generally speaking, the cost of anesthesia is between 1000-3000 yuan.
4. Postoperative nursing expenses
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need some postoperative care to ensure disinfection and healing of wounds. Public hospitals will charge corresponding fees according to the workload and cost of postoperative care.
Postoperative nursing costs usually include drug change costs, disinfection costs, nurses' nursing costs, etc. These costs are determined according to the needs of patients and the length of stay, and generally between 1000 and 3000 yuan.
