According to Health-Tourism, a heart bypass surgery in Malaysia costs around $10,000. You will need ten times more money if you want to do it in the US. The question arises whether this significant difference in costs means that health care in America is far better than in Malaysia? Again, with a help of Numbeo, we compared health care services between Kuala Lumpur and NYC. The result suggests that they are approximately on the same level.
