Private hospitals and diagnostic centers in telangana reportedly encourage rural doctors (RMP) and medical experts (PMP), commonly marked as charlators to refer patients to their facilities and offer up to 40% of the total account as a commission.
The practice of unskilled doctors operating the so -called “first aid centers” grew in Telangana for decades. To reduce the threat, the district medical and medical clerk (DMHO) from Nizamabad, Rajasree issued a circular of September, warning private hospitals against dedication to these practices. He warned the circular against strict measures under the 2010 Clinical Establishment Act, together with disciplinary measures against guidance.
The head of the government said that Nizamabad exceeds the problem. “In Karimnagar, Nizamabad and Nirmal parts, commissions rise up to 50 to 60%. Ten years ago in Karimnagar it was already 30 to 40%. Nirmal joined later, but now it is the same everywhere.
The doctor also noted that such incentives have even spread to outpatient recommendations and diagnostic laboratories: “It is illegal and dangerous, but the system maintained because doctors themselves support RMP and PMP. It has become a question of competition and survival.”
Meanwhile, Medical Council Telangana (TGMC) performs air raids and inspections on clinics and centers operated by unskilled doctors. The TGMC recently suspended five doctors for professional incorrect behavior and ethical violations under the Indian Medical Council regulations (professional behavior, etiquette and ethics) of 2002 and the 1968 Telelangan Physicians.
The suspended doctors have been found to be involved in sponsorship events for charlatan, which is distorted as cosmetologists and transplant surgeons and show an unrecognized qualification not recognized by the National Medical Commission (NMC).
TGMC Vice -President Srinivas said the problem is not limited to rural areas. “This problem also prevails in cities such as Hyderabad. Some hospitals with multi-specialty and super specialties give discounts and commissions because patients are ceded for examination tests.
Kiran Madala, Professor at the Gandhi Medical College, Secunderabad, said: “The government must provide infrastructure in rural areas to encourage in rural areas to be there to be there for the government to be there to be placed there must be included in sufficient amount to deal with nursing homes. Hospitals that the government must provide infrastructure in rural areas.
