How to provide proper health care to the common man

By Karuna

 

With an increase in population, pollution level and lack of nutritious food, health care facility has become one of the basic amenities of our lives. Gone are those days when the heath care services were provided from the ethical and charitable point of view. Today, the health care sector forms one of the major market sectors.

 

The commercialisation of health care has led to the emergence of privately owned hospitals. No doubt, these hospitals have better facilities, better technology, better infrastructure, better nursing and provide better accessibility. They have improved the quality of services. But every coin has two aspects. These hospitals charge so much of fees, recommend unnecessary tests and medicines. They have become a profit-making machine. Not everyone can afford treated from a private hospital. These hospitals can be a boon for the rich people but are a curse for the poor people.

 

While providing health care services, we must not consider only one strata of the society. The incompetence or inability of our Government is one of the causes behind commercialisation of health care services. In order to ensure proper health care to the common people, our government can bond with the private hospitals. They can implement strict rules and provide treatment to the poor people at subsidised rates. The government can tie with private hospitals in order to improve their structural improvements.

 

It is said that 'prevention is better than cure'. Awareness can be spread among the public regarding the methods of preventing and controlling diseases. People should be made aware of the importance of sanitation and hygiene. The government should seek to supply safe drinking water to all the areas. It can also carry out free vaccination and immunisation programs to counter infectious diseases and injuries.

 

Health care is a service and not a business. Our government should intervene and make sure that this service reaches the common man.
