Blog Post 333 - Supreme Court orders on Forensic audit of Fortis Healthcare shares deal

By

It is mentioned in media reports today that Hon'ble Supreme Court of India has ordered for forensic audit of shares deal carried out by Fortis Healthcare. Certainly, the hospital run by corporate has concentrated on increasing share value in stock exchange without caring for how the Doctors are treating patients. It is not only in one hospital but the menace is spreading silently thoughout the health sector. This situation became more aggravated ever since the Govt. started giving subsidies to such hospitals for the treatment of COVID patienrs. Besides, this report I wish that the report will cover the issues of internal working of hospital, mentioned below/ 

In my earlier posts. I did make a mention of that Doctors in private hospitals are looking for to meet the targets set out in order to save their jobs and for this they poach for the patients to meet their targets. They keep patients in ICUs for more than required period thereafter declare them dead after the bill cross their targets. 

I could not understand that if the doctors are so incompetent to treat the patient then why they keep them ICU for longer pariods, probably they want to show the hospital management that they have made so much earning. Such doctors are black spots on the profession - very shameful. Such doctors are still on the payroll of hospital - must have killed more patients by now - be checked?

I have passed through this stage last year when my wife admiited for removal of stone in Gal bladder was kept in ICU for 35 days, later declared dead on 11th october giving a mischevious reason that she was not well. I did make a camplaint to Dr. Ashok Seth, chairman who does not do surgeries but refers to other doctors. Further, these doctors also does not carry out surgeries but instructs trainee doctors.They are least bothered about further welfare except making rounds to charge the fees for the visits in hospital records. 

The issue of raising my case now is that court should also take a note of and make a part of Forensic Audit inspection report whereby -

1.  Working of such hospitals where non- performing Senior doctors should be investigated and strict action be taken on such doctors who work for their salaries and meeting the finances of such hospitals. 

2. It is often heard that the bodies of covid patients who died. were not handed over to the family members and was cremated by hospitals itself. Who has made money out of this ?

3. Doctors who instructs the trainee doctors to carry out the surgeries should be sent to medical colleges to give training for new upcoming students in the profession.

4. Proper reason be given for keeping the patient for longer period, maybe it is due to Doctor's negligence or otherwise. This will prevent unwanted deaths even after keeping patients for longer period ( recent case of Raju Srivastva who was kept for 45 days in ICU be examined).

5. Govt. should stop funding such hospitals found breaching the code of conduct for carrying out the noble profeesion honestly. 

I an confident that during the course of Forensic Audit, searching of records in hospitals will certainly open up a pandora box in these activities as also into the misuse of Govt. money. Will certainly save the human lives on the other.

Tail piece - May be I will be able to get a detailed report on my wife's death which I am waiting  since last year.

Qualities Of A Good Prime Minister

By
Following are ten qualities (not in order of importance), which I believe are the most important for a Prime Minister and why ? - 1) Ability to connect with constituents - All great leaders in history had a penchant for being able to connect with their citizens i.e. a strong or habitual liking for something or tendency to do something. Leaders who have failed have probably failed in this domain. 2) Clarity of vision - The Prime Minister who knows their vision and can successfully articulate it to the voting public is one who will be held in high regard. 3) Coherent grasp of domestic issues - There has to be a keen desire and understanding of domestic concerns that directly impact the citizens. Failure to understand and address these issues will create a gap between what the Leader does and how it impacts their citizens. 4) Clear understanding of different cultures in their Governance - All good leaders will be able to understand the Political culture, Ethical/ Racial cultures, Cl...

Working Of Nuclear Plant and Generation Of Energy

By
Nuclear energy originates from splitting of Uranium atoms- a process called fission. This generates heat to produce steam, which is used by Turbine generator to generate electricity, because Nuclear power plants do not burn fuel, they do not produce greenhouse gas emissions. It is the safe, clean, cost effective alternative contrary to claims by opponents of nuclear energy. Nuclear power reactors use controlled nuclear fission in a chain reaction. With the use of neutron absorbers, the rate of reaction controlled, so the power depends on demand. By reliably providing power 24 hours a day, Nuclear energy is an important part of the energy mix necessary to meet electricity demand. And, with no carbon emissions, it will remain an important clean energy resource for the future. For more than forty years, Duke Energy, USA has operated nuclear plants- setting industry benchmarks for safety and efficiency in the process. Working of a Nuclear Plant - A Nuclear power plant works much like a...

By
U.S. dollar is strongest currency which supports U.S. economy. The reason is that more than one -third countries of the world's gross domestic product comes from countries that peg their currencies to dollars. A strong economy will attract investment from all over the world due to perceived safety and ability to achieve return on investment. Since investors seek higher yield on investment particularly from abroad, creates a strong capital account and high demand for dollars.

Peace Of Mind

Peace of mind refers to state of mentally being healthy and spiritually at peace with enough knowledge and understanding to keep oneself strong in the face of Discord and Stress. Being at  Peace is considered by many to be healthy and the opposite of being stressed or anxious. Finding inner peace is more about being the doing. It is about learning towards rather than struggling against. Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process gradually changing opinions slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures. It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it and it is not enough to believe in it, one must work at it. Nobody can bring you peace but yourself. Peace is its own reward.

If you cannot find peace within yourself, you will never find it elsewhere. Following are eleven points to find peace of m...
