I feel like without reform of the the RVU process, there is still self-promoting, systemic exploitation of the medical field, no?<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16955805615294142633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509187841033628660.post-34108072617551935572013-09-29T07:25:51.473-07:002013-09-29T07:25:51.473-07:00There are many serious facts in way of Public Heal...<br />There are many serious facts in way of Public Health:- (Indian Experience)<br />1.Government Hospitals are in poor health, doctors and staff paid from public tax work very poorly, very carelessly and irresponsibly. Most of them do private practice at other places in free hours and even on their hospital duty hours. <br />2. Private sector is free to decide their fees and rates, so they are free to loot.(Government policy is that competition will reduce the fees, but practically it does not happen)<br />3. Pharmaceutical companies are a big lobby to determine the government policy in deciding medicinal rates. So patients pay always much much more than their actual costs.<br />4. Medical and Health insurances, either purchased by peoples themselves or arranged by governments for certain group of people, are always exploited by Private hospitals and Insurance companies when patient reach hospital.(Insured patients pay more for the same procedures than un-insured patients)<br />5. I suggest that Health sector must only be in government sector and their must be no place for private sector in health.<br /><br /><a href="www.consulthomeopathy.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Dr. Ravinder S Mann</a> Dr. Ravindra S.
