I dont know abut ur views but what I want to tell u is my experinece with the government duties in hospitals.
Yes government is ready to pay high amount of salary for working in government hospitals. But the problem is the work load is so much like sometimes doctors have to work like 3 days continously without having food and sleep. Ultimately we are humans too we need some life.
I had internship in government hospitals where the amount of patients were so many that we never got time to eat food o relax for 48 hrs and the stipend provided us was only 1500 Rs per month. Is this fair amount of payment for doctors who has to work like anything..?? thats a reason doctors dont prefer extra government duties because we can earn more in private practice and get more knowledge.
Government should keep duties in such way that doctors can get enough rest or atleast have sometime for lunch or dinner. Also should pay fair amount to their work.
What you maintain is doubtless true. Inadequate infrastructure,lack of investment all have contributed to this unedifying scenario but what must be condemned is the greed,inhumanity and lack of moral scruples on the part of some doctors to take despicable advantage of this human tragedy and that's the dominant line of my views.
