Pros and cons. It is cheaper to delivery in government hospital. However private, they have specialize and also in terms of waiting, you (your friend) are not gonna wait as 'long' as government hospital. Especially check up.
Another cons are, government hospital always tend to have alot of trainee. So during delivery, some gynea will bring along the trainee. But of course you can choose to reject if you are not comfortable with the trainee checking on you.

Happy New Year! Thanks for the brief summary. Is there any comparison as to the cost difference between private and public?
Cheers

My friend who has just given birth told me the rates between the 2 are quite competitive..Albeit i feel that government hospitals would probably have more subsidies than private.
