Root Causes for the current State of Healthcare
1. There is no governmental control on drug prices
2. No laws to govern the working of path labs
3. There is no rule to govern the rates of medical tests across path labs
4. Private colleges charge a hefty donation for admissions. Doctors hence use alternate ways to earn and get return on this investment
5. Doctors try to make extra income by tying up with these path labs
6. Doctors get perks from the pharma companies for prescribing their medicines
7. Hospitals want to make more and more money from the patients
8. Surgeons are allowed to decide themselves how much they want to charge for surgeries, depending on their seniority
9. Generic medicines have a lesser margin and hence chemists don’t like to stock them
10. The huge number of people who turn up at the Government hospitals make the Doctor’s/Staff’s job very tough
11. Insurance companies try to find the smallest flaws in the application to be able to reject claims
12. Doctors don’t want to work in villages since they lack infrastructure
13. Not enough awareness among general public about medical practices
14. Not enough good medical colleges in the country to produce the required number of Doctors
15. Medical practitioners in general lack humane attitude and use their expertise only for earning money
16. Anti-competition laws are ineffective more

I would like to point a big hole in present allopathic medical education in the country. The doctors know the chemical composition of the drug etc, but not the real natural source from which it is extracted. In ayurveda, you know the exact source of medicine in the nature and use it in alchemical way to device the required drug. The present allopathic medicines are still younger and have much side effects. I therefore, request to this forum that if health of a nation increases, its prosperity increase, its GDP increase. So, we must enhance the research & practise of Ayurvedic system for the benefit of country. Holistic lifestyle methods and yoga must be promoted in Govt institutions and medical hospitals. more

1)Need to develop a data base of all healthcare members (Registered medical practitioners, registered pharmacists and registered nurses) in India who are in clinical practice. 2) Make a rule to hold one person and one position initially. 3) Implement all the acts pertaining to clinical practices ! more
