Last week a private television channel an episode such as organized groups of employees at the orthopaedic hospital, popularly known as Pangu hospital life, local owners, medicines, gauge, bandages, syringes, etc., by that State health institution in the city. All of these drugs and many other items are sold adjacent hospital at half their prices on private clinics, to the orthopaedic.
The television crew entered the storeroom one such private clinic, where a large stock of medicines, diverted by the orthopaedic hospital, was found. Labels on bottles and boxes of drugs clearly showed that properties were the Government. The late-night TV watchers were surprised to see that the shop keeper Show names of employees of the hospital clinic of a registry with entries orthopedic with their cell phone numbers was maintaining, the drugs and other clinical materials regularly delivered. The amount of materials entered in the register.
One of the shop keepers admitted the TV reporter the clinic received regular supply of medicines and other materials from the orthopaedic hospital staff. A boy by the orthopaedic ward hospital, whose name has been found along with his cell phone number in the private clinic register, was chased by the TV journalists. The staff introduced himself as young ward of the orthopaedic hospital.
Appeared on the question of how his name with phone number in the clinic register, he replied that a hospital staff he visited often many private clinics and as such his name in the register could be observed. But the boy was found asked mother after several medicines against his name in the register. A further employee of the private clinic found store you swear on TV journalist, he would indulge in such a practice in the future. The Director of the hospital was the question, orthopaedic about theft of drugs from the hospital to the TV reporter with the assurance that he would try to stop the abuse. The Director (DG) health services, which also questioned said the reporter, theft of drugs in other hospitals, Government's going on. The DG informed that the reporters worry that 96% of patients drugs needed hospitals provided by the Government.
The assertion by the DG Health over the supply of medicines in State hospitals may be true, but it doesn't help the large number of patients, the participation of Government health facilities daily as unscrupulous hospital staff continue most of away on sale at.
Our Health Minister is Professor AFM Ruhal Haque never found in people says that nationwide, there was no shortage of medicines in State hospitals. He even repeatedly announced in the past who had to buy the patients in government hospitals not more drugs at their own expense. Civilian surgeons had, the Minister once quoted medicines at State hospital as we reported earlier in this article, when whatever he wanted, what they reported to send, which gave it enough supply of drugs available. The Minister claimed that adequate supply of medicines in the hospitals of pragmatic measures, which have been of the Government in the health sector of the country.
The Health Minister said, that change the color of the labels of medicines that the hospital was to ensure free distribution to patients. Once the public central medical store (CMS) which maintains the supply of medicines to public hospitals had to back essential drugs from 20 districts in December 2010. The civil surgeon of the 20 districts returned the meds for CMS, because those are not in hospitals were required. Later, the Ministry of health and the Director-General of health had two separate committees to the probe into the causes of the rejection of the civil surgeon the medicines via CMS made. The civil surgeon informed had contacted Ministry of health and Health Directorate that they send the CMS not to essential drugs, but in vain.
On the other hand, a large number of patients will often suffer in some other important public hospitals. Unscrupulous hospital staff recognize a part of money from helpless patients either for the provisioning of a trolley or allocation of a seat. In some hospitals as is claimed to go 'Dalals"(brokers or intermediaries) allure patients clinics on the assurance of a better treatment. A part of the doctors and hospital staff, which are associated with this specific clinics try, the patients for their own interests, make additional money to convince.
Furthermore, medicines for provided their way into the outer stores to sell public hospitals. Such practices are not new. These are continued in the years continue. The powerful general staff with politically connected groups are mainly responsible for this evil practice. How long it continues depends on the authorities concerned.
