It would be profitable for Indian medical fraternity to shut up their ‘shops’ and better start more profit making business like making curry powder or chappathi with chicken as there are more takers for these bits and pieces than their medical care. From Kerala Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan to Congress President Sonia Gandhi, all prefer US to India for medical assistance. Achuthanandan once said he was not ready for a lucky draw with Indian doctors and hence went to US. Likewise, the Indian doctors were not even disclosed of the ailment that Sonia Gandhi had.
The right to good health is of supreme importance but in fact, the world’s most populous democracy, cannot guarantee that to our citizens. Our country is fast becoming the hub for medical tourism where people from other countries flock to get good quality treatment nevertheless our nethas prefer US. A confidence building measure is, therefore, imperative in Indian health care system.
