Millenium Foundation - Dream of poor people
Doctors as next to God if not God. We still have many doctors with impeccable ethical records. they started
any critical task by the name of God. However, there are many others - not so ethical, and their number is on the rise who don’t think twice before taking their patients for a ride.
Money-minded Bad doctor used the common tactics to cheat or fleece gullible patients of their hard earned money are:
• Prescribing more tests than necessary - to be done at preferred labs (whether in-house at big hospitals or outside labs) for hefty commissions. Sometimes these tests are not even conducted on the samples taken, and fake results are given.
• Keeping you admitted at hospital rooms when you’re fit to be discharged.
• Prescribing expensive medicines/vaccines when cheaper and quality substitutes are available. Often many such medicines/vaccines are available only at prescribed chemist shops. That benefits pharma companies and the doctors who prescribe them but inflate the bills for patients.
• Charging patients at different rates for the same treatment. Top private hospitals are charging according to the room a patient selects even for the same operation by the same doctors in the same operation theatre.
• Fake operations – this is how it happens. A doctor can assess that you can be made to pay. He will say that you need an urgent operation when you don’t really need it. If you’re still not convinced he’ll say that he needs to send a tissue from your throat for testing whether it has a cancerous cell. Most of us don’t argue with our doctors. So you’ll agree. He’ll admit you and give you anaesthesia.
• Unconscious you will be wheeled into operation theatre where your conscious relatives will be not be allowed. After few hours, you’ll be taken out drowsy. After you wake up the doctor will come and say that he has sent your tissue for testing though he doesn’t think you got cancer but he wants to be doubly sure. Can you argue? This again has happened with one of my relatives. After the operation, the doctor simply forgot that he has to discuss the test results before the operation he was very concerned. When my relative approached him to discuss the results of the test even without looking at the reports he smiled and said nothing to worry.
• Use of stent in heart disease treatment even if not needed – 1 stent may cost a patient anything between TK. 1,00,000 -1,20,000 or more depending upon the status of hospitals or pockets of gullible patients. Worse, it may be harmful and may cause death even that doctors take bribes to recommend stents.

Hospital income is not sufficient enough to support under privileged patient. For this purpose Millennium Foundation is formed . Rich people of the society is requested to raise their hand to support poor people . They can donate their Zakat also.
