most of the western countries have far better health care delivery system then pak. if you dont know the facts thein its your fault.secondly learn some manners to talk on a forum and if you dont have then STFU. putting you on ignore list.What a lame argument. You think there are no lazy arses in western countries? You think people don't abuse their power any where else in the world? The difference is such incidents are tightly controlled and not shown on TV like a live circus. Just because the corrupt people have ruined the institutions does not mean that we lack highly talented honest people in the country. So just STFU
when a doctor has to see 150 patients in 6 hours plus emergencies he cant set any minimum standards for the patient treatment. why? because it s not humanly possible. such type of "donkey work" is not done anywhere in developed world. people should not expect a happy and smiling doctor taking complete history and doing complete examination of every patient when he has to see more then hundred patients in few hours. there are very few who opted to join this field to become billionaire. majority aims for a happy comfortable respectful living in a medical profession. but in pakistan there is no comfort and respect and pays are way too low.I agree there is shortage of equipment and medicine,our govt officers and bureaucracy are major hurdle in our low spending on health and education.I wish time come when we also pay 3lakh to trainee doctors but for this our economy should become strong and unnecessary expenses done on bureaucracy and govt secretaries who even use govt facilities after retirement should be ended.Doctors are no doubt our asset and we should respect them but they should also ensure quality and minimum standards are met for treatment of patients.If anyone want to become very rich he should do business as medical doctor is not a field to become billionaire, it is no doubt good earning profession but not for becoming super rich.
In u.k almost half of pay of doctor is cut for taxation to govt but here in Pakistan private hospital doctors not pay such taxes and earning huge money.You will never find much doctors becoming billionaire even in u.k, the are paid well and remain in upper middle class.If anyone want to become much rich he should go for business
as far as private set up is concerned they are just the tip of the iceberg. the young doctors who join such set ups get only 30000-40000 rs.only the top few consultants are making lot of money but they are few.
